This is always a dead giveaway that something is a buzzword
Same for rest. Sometimes when people use it, it just means JSON + http requests. Other times it's supposed to be some kind of architectural style
- guhidalg 4y agoYou can always point people to the original paper that defined REST: https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/rest_arch_style.htm https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/rest_arc...
- 331c8c71 4y agoShould one also point people to the original vision of OOP (by Alan Kay) when they mention the term?
- guhidalg 4y agoYes, at least when there's disagreement about what OOP means. You and I can disagree about it, but we can more easily answer "Does it match what Alan Kay wrote about?" with a yes or no.
