Neither his or your posts are licensed under the GPLv3, it is impossible for me to control future posts, I can only hope that you as the authors of the posts respects the freedom of the community you're in and decide to use GPLv3 for your future posts. However, if you decide to quote (or link with) a post that is licensed under the GPLv3 you must also use the GPLv3 license for your post.

Yo dawg, I heard you like licenses so I licensed your license so  you can protect your source while you protect the license that protects your code.

Hello, I see you chose to license your post under the GPLv3, which is excellent, but I have a couple of remarks to make.

- The MIT license is an ambiguous name for what it is, it should really be referred to as the Expat license.

- You forgot to alter the name Richard Matthew Stallman to your own name, which means that the post is licensed under my name, that is, unless your own name actually is Richard Matthew Stallman, in which case, happy hacking.

But, considering that both of these posts are using a part of the source of a GPL post or linking to one, shouldn't they be implicitly considered published under GPL?

Well, anyway, best to license this whole thread under GPL, that way, there'll be no need to put the license banner on every post.

If you wish that people would be able to link to your posts without them having to use the GPLv3 for their license, I recommend that you check out the LGPLv3, that is, the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3. This way, you are still respecting the readers freedom, but in a couple of corner cases this might be more useful for posts that have significant proprietary posts competing with them, in which case the reader might decide to link with a proprietary post instead of your post.

But wouldn't that be supporting nonfree posts? I don't think that there is any case where the post should be nonfree, so there's no point in allowing linking from them.

That is a good point, I did not deem the one line used by >>2 as derivative work, if you deem that it is in fact a derivative work, please mail the FSF (Free Software Foundation) with your complaint.

I see you chose the Expat license for your post, which is often ambiguously referred to as the MIT license, that license is fine for some types of texts, such as small informative posts like READMEs but not for any serious discussion posts which is why I don't want to discuss free licenses with you. I also noted that you did not enter the correct year in the header.
