> Finally, I haven't read all 162 comments here - but OO is not "bad" nor "the holy graal". There are different ways of doing programming, and its as simple as that
What are we programmers supposed to do with all of our free-time unless argue about what is the holy grail versus which is not?! I feel so empty.
Jokes aside, I think this is the most important point really. There is no single language/paradigm that works best for everything, it all really depends on the context, environment, and so much more. It's easy to forget on the internet, that someones environment might be vastly different than yours, and think your solution will work for others because you miss their context.
OOP is hated all around the world, and still solves problems. Functional programming is loved all around the world, but is still not the right solution for everything.
