I'd say yes. Even though I agree with many of the points the article makes, OOP is still very pervasive, and I'm pretty sure it's still by far the most used development paradigm for most types of software. OOP may not be ideal or perfect, but OOP languages can be used to shoehorn almost any kind of problem into, which is exactly what people are still doing today. Often times producing a terrible mess that hardly works, but that's besides the point for his challenge ;-) Anyway, he makes many valid points, like other articles about the disadvantages of OOP, but none of these every draws any convincing conclusions why OOP is 'bad' and why something else would be 'better'. In programming there is no paradigm that fits every application, OOP is just one of many ways to solve problems, and one that has proven that (if used pragmatically) works very well for a very broad range of problems.
