It's predicting that you will predict wrong frequently enough to make it not worthwhile predicting at all.
I apply the same logic at slots: the way to win is not to play.
>Creating abstraction for a code that was designed without being compatible with these abstraction has a huge cost
I have never found it more expensive to create an abstraction after following the rule of 3.
Indeed, ive always noticed that abstractions which are front loaded are nearly ALWAYS worse than abstractions built with hindsight.
>As I've said, nothing is all white or all black. The problem with YAGNI is the developers think it's all white
We think you're playing slots and remembering only the wins, believing that you're just naturally talented at predicting the future.
Ive seen this attitude in hundreds of devs. They all think theyre uniquely able to anticipate the code base's future needs.
