@dgavin @mattontech @mmasnick as you say, it's "stealing", which is illegal.
As a software developer, one very important thing is licensing. Only when a license explicitly allows re-using/"copying" code it's ok to copy. There are even many more nuances. However, one point is that if there is no license mentioned granting rights, the work has to be considered as proprietary. Also, I'd expect entities like NYT to have strict licenses actively restricting the use of their work.
