That was the challenge. DefuseSec specifically said he would "give $100 USD to anyone who can trick me into inserting the string".

This is why you always want to define your scopes.

He clearly intended for some variant of "any of my software projects that other people actually use", but failed to specify that detail.

But it's nonetheless hilarious. Laughs all around.

And he inserted the string into HN, and our brains - but I already forgot.

Now insert that string into Linux source code, and I ll get surprised.
