I guess Marketing learned a valuable lesson about SQL keywords. It's also amusing to me because you know some engineer at Amazon must have brought up an edge case where a valid request would start with SELECT - but they were probably dismissed because how often would that happen - really?
- divbzero 6y agoAlso amusing is the thought that lowercase "select" is any safer than uppercase "SELECT".
- userbinator 6y agoI can't believe anyone who has ever actually used SQL for more than a few hours would not know the keywords are case-insensitive. More likely it was just someone given a list of keywords to filter out, with no mention of case-(in)sensitivity.
- dylan604 6y agois case sensitivity training available through HR we can send the new recruits?
- blackflame7000 6y agoOn a case by case basis
- wiredone 6y agoMore likely an SDE-1 at Amazon 3 months out of college was given a sprint task and because they’ve only ever worked on nosql they had no idea about the edge cases of what they were asked to do.
- rasz 6y ago>SDE1 salaries at Amazon can range from $10,697 - $794,729 Yes, how a person making a minimum of $100K/y could know such things.
