Is the document a Zip bomb or something?

Why the fuck is it that I, who has FIVE ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE less experience with this, can get this shit researched, written and DONE in less time that it took for the senior dev to flail around failing to do anything
Reading comprehension. Some people just don't have it.

@Greybeard They went through all the paperwork to use the piece of customer data in a regression suite but didn't bother actually fixing the bug?
-
@PleegWat the bug was fixed on a topic branch but not yet merged.

Not answering because anonymization.

Why is a tar bomb so different from a zip bomb?

Zip bombs get bigger. Tar bombs just make a mess.
Filed under: are we still talking about penises?

@ben_lubar 'zactly. If they don't like your zip bomb they'll just ask you to zip it back up again, but a tar bomb is a significantly stickier situation.

I don't think they'll finish unzipping it in the first place.

@ben_lubar that depends on what you mean by "finish". There is definitely a point at which they stop.
