I 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.

I 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)

Lol the worst pattern
Strangler fig is one of the best, with one of the worst names
Yeah, 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

“Big ball of mud” is a good one
