Input validation and server side validation must work hand-in-hand.

@XSGeek - both should follow the same rules, but assume the other side isn't doing any validation. (hint - it's usually client side not validating)

@XSGeek - ahem.

All programmers are usually lazy.

(But my client side comment was based on the fact that it's so easy to post with curl or postman)

@0x56

Yeah, server side should assume every request is a potential attack.

And there should be a law that all programmers pass a course on communicating errors to stupid people so that they can fix their stupid input mistakes.
And every input mistake not properly rejected by the UI should send a shock to the chair of the UX developer.
My new motto: More stick, less carrot. 😈
