A good engineer uses Object Orientated Design/Design Patterns/Inversion of Control/Functional Types/Algebraic Types/Clean Code/New Buzzword Coming Off The Tech Press Soon. All of these ideas have good value but the tech industry seems to lack moderation.
The buzzwords are like catnip to most developers. They go absolutely crazy. Their fevered madness, detailed on medium.com. Their codebase, transformed. Conference tickets, bought. Once they've weaned themselves off one then another buzzword will come along and books will be bought and blog posts will be written and code will be refactored and job specs will be altered.
I live by "when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail" now and try to stay wary of this year's transformative codebase panacea.
