I’ve been ‘into’ OOP since 1987.

That's completely true, but it's also not what I said.

That's completely true, but it's also not what I said. There is a difference between being able to work with a paradigm (which will take time, albeit not 10 years) and being able to write a proper critique of it. More so, if you wnat to do that in the way it was done in this article, you will need some time to get acquainted with other paradigms as well, or any comparison you make are mood points.

Seems we live in an era where it's more important to bash paradigms and technologies as soon as possible, rather than trying to understand them and put them to proper use.

My point is that whatever language you use, we are almost always learning some language, it is just expressed in a different form. Go is in this case expressing another language. It just happens to be expressed in verbose Go syntax.

Drop me a line, I see some things that we might have some interesting dicussions on. I'm working on smart(er) factories, but a smart city is also interesting to look at.

Teaching the factory a lesson

In the past ‘few’ years, everybody has been building so-called dashboards. Be it in the form of web applications, database reports or graphs created in Excel sheets, dashboards showing the progress of key performance indicators (KPIs) have been created in every organization.

The closed loop

In software engineering, and specifically in software architecture, we spend a lot of time talking about patterns, architectural styles and other rules and guidelines.

Last week in the comments of a LinkedIn post, I had a brief exchange with Ger Schoeber about the usefulness (or absence thereof) of the current efforts to build a Corona app in The Netherlands. I had a vague idea of writing down how I thought a Corona app could…

Write about what you think is trivial — because it’s not

This weekend I had a nice chat with an old coach and colleague. We were talking about doing new things, finding new ventures and using online possibilities of advertising yourself. One of the things we discussed was related to a request I got very recently: Can you provide our software…

Authority inversion — killing for architecture?

The text below is a piece that I wrote in 2009, and it’s still relevant. However, I am not sure if I still agree with my own conclusions from back then. What do you think? Who hasn’t heard stories about managers who don’t have a clue what their engineers, architects…
