You’re supposed to do that anyway. Code on SO is licensed as CC BY-SA, which requires attribution.

I used to do that on complete copy and paste parts.

Now we aren't allowed to do so. If stackoverflow.com is used you have to adjust the answer so that in court your code will not be a copy. They are afraid of users licenseing their code afterward.
