294 - The Dubious Idea of Code Reuse with Dave Thomas
Published 7 months ago
Description
In this episode I talk with Dave Thomas about why code reuse is overrated, the economics of programming principles, and why we can't empirically test whether practices work—we have to scrutinize the arguments behind them. Dave also discusses his new book Simplicity and his "developer without portfolio" concept.
