I just want to +1 this because I had mixed feelings about the last post this one addresses and some of the comments made me feel a little insane and I couldn’t figure out why.
I can’t think of many times in my career where adding or modifying code made things more difficult, it’s easier the more I put into it, the more I reason through it and make improvements or add features. When I read this post it makes more sense to me, of course I would program this way, because I am very lazy and I don’t like programming for the heck of it, I like building, so any programming that got in the way of me moving faster became an obstacle to be improved or removed if it couldn’t.
This is the natural progression of good systems I’ve seen so far in my relatively short experience programming/building (about 11 years if you add school).
Anyway thanks for this, I thought I was going crazy. Need to go reread pragmatic programmer again.
