it feels like though, whats "commonly accepted" changes quite rapidly though doesnt it?
i think we probably need a more rigorous definition or else people will keep using "best practice" to justify what is actually a preference, and i think thats where conflicts start to happen within teams/orgs.
- JohnFen 5y agoI don't think that it's changed that much over the decades of my career, really. The words used change, but the concepts seem reasonably stable. New batches of commonly accepted practices come into play with new technologies, though, and most of the "hot" technologies today are still so new that the "accepted practices" unique to them have still not settled down. So, yes, in that space, they change rapidly because they don't yet really exist.
