    I’d go a step further and I suspect it’s a peppering string (i.e. fixed string you add to hashes to defeat rainbow tables). I’d really hope it isn’t as you mentioned because gosh that sounds like a toxic workplace if someone is just leaving landmines around purely to get someone fired.

      More like, you know damn well that Jim keeps passing code reviews without reading a line in them, he’s been talked to, still does it, and you need something actionable to prove it so that you can get someone’s ass in his chair who does their job.

        From the stories I’ve heard from corporate software employees, this does sound like exactly the kind of thing you gotta do to show some manager the guy is buddy-buddy with that they’re actually not doing their job. And even then they didn’t listen.

      Would that imply that all quality control is evil?

        No, I don’t think so - it’s just a dick move to go out of your way to sabotage someone. If they’re fucking up just visit their existing mistakes - don’t waste time contriving new ones.

          So when TSA sends fake guns and bombs through luggage, it’s not qa, it’s just a dick move to sabotage them?
