And there's nothing "wrong" with the GoF Patterns per-se. The issue was always people applying them blindly without understanding why (or more to the point, "if") they were needed. Once writing code filled with patterns became "the thing you do"... all bets were off. :-(
- dominotw 4mo agoI remember putting stuff like this on my resume "developed X using visitor pattern" . ppl would ask "what is your favourite design pattern" in interviews. lmao.
- whattheheckheck 4mo agoLol the worst pattern

- _puk 4mo agoYeah, it's still useful to refer to patterns. Facades and stranglers are massively useful patterns, and help explain concepts to the layman. Personally I've never been patterns over everything, so I'm not going to now knee jerk and say no patterns ever. There's a time and a place for everything. edit Fuck. A reread on that and I sound like AI. Updated

- awesome_dude 4mo agoI do have a favourite (couple of) design pattern(s) SOLID and Hexagonal Programming But these are not GoF patterns (although Singleton's are, and I do recall how it was incredibly difficult to produce a singleton in some languages - eg. Python)
