Disadvantages of OOP
Richard Mansfield has a somewhat interesting rant on the disadvantages of Object Oriented Programming. While I agree in general with quite a few of his arguments, he's a bit dated and goes a overboard. Almost to the opposite end of the spectrum from the OOP fanboys. One quote I did like was this.
but one can reuse code without OOP—often by simply copying and pasting.I think that's probably the most popular type of reuse. Of course, if you are strictly copying and pasting then your doing something wrong. But most often you need to do something similiar but not exactly like you've done in the past (or someone else has done in the paste and posted online).
