It is a conversation I have had with many a jr dev. 'ok you are logging this how much space is that going to take? how long do you want to keep it? what is your rotation schedule?'

I usually get the 'oh did not think of that' because logging is a serious afterthought in many cases. It is boring and you just drop in log4j and log away right?

log4j had big vulnerability a while back and it was a huge pain to contact all our vendors and find out if they had patched for it or not.

I guess I should have added a /s :)
