It still blows my mind how dogmatic some people can be about things like this. I don't understand why anyone takes these things as gospel.
Who else has had to deal with idiots who froth at the mouth when you exceed an 80 line character margin?
And it's not just programming styles, patterns and idioms. It's arguably even worse when it comes to tech stacks and solution architecture.
It's super-frustrating when I'm dealing with people in a professional setting and they're quick to point out something they read in a book, or even worse - a blog - with very little else to add.
This was especially bad during the NoSQL and Microservice hype. Still somewhat feeling it with PAAS/SAAS and containerization. We have so many really really basic things running as Function Apps or lambdas, or simple transformations running in ADF or Talend that add zero value and only add to the support and maintenance overhead.
Always keep in mind that sometimes the only difference between yourself and the person writing the book/blog/article is that they actually wrote it. And that their opinions were written down don't make them fact. Apply your own mind and experience.
