    I wasn’t really referring to this post with that question - though it is relevant that leaving even an effectively unconstrained field like one that allows for the shrek script to be submitted would have seen me fired (if it had somehow passed QC, field sizes are one of the first things checked).

    I was more curious about how different our experiences seem to be: you seem to imply a background where you’re expected to take the requirements as gospel with what you write based solely off that unless you’re personally invested, whereas in my experience engaging critically with the project is the single most important aspect of the development process, and not questioning potentially unwanted behavior leaves you open to firing (or criminal neglect if you’re dealing with medical PII, criminal records, etc…)

    I’m quite genuinely interested in the different approach to development philosophy you present here.

    Sincere question, are you not expected to clarify questionable business rules? I’ve never worked somewhere that leaving such an obvious issue like “unrestricted fields in a public-facing application” without getting it explicitly stated that that’s intended functionality wouldn’t have gotten me fired instantly.

    Yeah, sleepy and wasn’t thinking about file sizes. That 1Gb limit (or, the Tsql 65,536 * [something] limit) was what I was referring to, but rather obviously the plaintext script for the movie is a just a little tiny bit smaller than that (51kb).

    It’s still a good deal larger than what in my experience can be fit into a receipt printer, but I can forgive their phrasing even if it was only a small part of the whole script. And aside from that, it does look to be a pretty modern device so it’s very possible that the stupid stupid 20kb file size limit that was so common has since been expanded (Last time I had to deal with a receipt printer the file was streamed over a serial connection into the printer cache before being run off G-code style. Incredibly charming piece of tech…)
