This article does a good job of encapsulating the prevailing Java "ignorance is strength" (worse/longer is better; abstraction is bad) paradigm. When are the right-tailers (in the bell curve) ever going to let you use new features to make your code shorter? Why learn complex concepts like "multiplication", when "tally marks" will do? I'm afraid I'm with Steve Yegge on this one, in regards to dislike of the "tools to move mountains of dirt" aspect. http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com.au/2007/12/codes-worst-enemy... |
