    Obsessing with “clean code” and removing duplication is a phase many of us go through.

      What on Earth is he saying? The very idea that the most creative work doesn't come from following a pattern and just changing a few variable values is utterly ridiculous! Just ask hollywood -- it's what they've been doing for decades, and they're the most creative people on Earth!

        Seriously. I can came up with similarly invented, just for sake of an article, artificial code to 'prove' theory that stand in the opposition to the one shown in the article. This is just a clickbait and a waste of time. :thumbsdown:

          For example, we later needed many special cases and behaviors for different handles on different shapes.
