My top Stack Overflow answer of all time is a now rather dated two lines of JavaScript: how to tell if a variable is undefined. I posted this in 2010 and have been getting points for it steadily for a decade, now exceeding the amount I garnered from all other activities while actively using the site. I don’t do js anymore but from what I understand the answer hasn’t been accurate since 2016 or something.
