It's a problem for small teams and people with little experience with code reviews. The 'walking on egg shells' thing happens ALL the time. I've never seen this get solved overnight. Your management really needs to sit

Yup - it's also similar to how great developers don't debug or code by braille (did that work? nope. How about this? Nope. Ok lemme try this...) but rather will sit and think through a problem. #3 is where a lot of tension can

That's fair enough but then why put in a giant 'SHOW PASSWORD' button. Why not just remove that button. I expect a hacker using my computer with admin rights to get everything. I don't expect my GF to get my passwords

This is really, really narrowminded. You're thinking of security in the sense of some hacker or someone who has technical abilities. What about the jealous ex-bf? He asked to use the gf's computer when they were dating, easily gr
