Asa backend dev, it should be a 503 error. I live in 503 land.

A proper backend developer would have the query be a URL using the GET method with a parameter that the user can fill-in directly in the address bar and the result be a text/plain page with just a bunch of numbers separated by pipe characters (or an application/json page with that info encoded as JSON if you wanna be fancy).

This has the added advantage of working both for humans and as an API for use in machine to machine communications via HTTP.

I do front and backend work. Biggest issue I see is people not thinking through interfaces properly (e.g. efficiencies & atomicity of operations), sanitizing inputs on both sides, error handling, and putting in the appropriate validation, authorization & testing.

The frontend developer made the backend so inefficient that it runs out of memory

You need to fire a gun and to a really good bald eagle impression.

The simple form that shows 503 on submit?

As a full stack dev I'd like to say that the issue I see most from backend devs isn't a lack of styling, it's their need to wrap every element in 15 motherfucking divs. They don't seem to understand that most html elements are self contained and can stand on their own.

As a java/python developer who has been hooked to front end since last 3 years I feel this is apt !.😂😂
