double riveting posted:* how is reference counting prescribed by the design of python-the-language? python-the-language is documentation written after cpython already existed. refcounting exists in perpetuity because the c module API for cpython mandates it. alternative implementations of python (see: pypy) still have to implement the recounting, because python without pre-existing c/fortran modules is totally useless double riveting posted:* from reading the page you linked, it sounds like they're struggling to get that lock thing out of this particular implementation because the dumb gc interfers with it. so they talk about moving to a different gc ("pure garbage collection"). doesn't this imply that the design is in fact independent of the implementation wrt. gc? they tried and failed.

lest anybody think i am picking on python alone, check out ruby's refinements. the feature is brilliant. it is scoped monkey patching, made simple enough for knuckle-dragging children to use everything is great until: quote:You may only activate refinements at top-level to the end of the file or in a string passed to Kernel#eval, Kernel#instance_eval or Kernel#module_eval until the end of the string. emphasis mine. the scoping rules for refinements are determined by implementation details in mri. refinements are not a property managed by the type system, but rather something determined by the order that bytes are read by the interpreter. this not only limits the utility of the feature, it creates a miserable amount of catchup work for alternative ruby implementations. jruby and rubinius have to find ways to implement this bizarre scope limitation despite having totally different guts Notorious b.s.d. fucked around with this message at 22:09 on Jan 11, 2014 |

Second system effect comes from the Mythical Man Month right, and means that once you've made a small good product/system, the second one after that is one where you tend to shoot really big because you think you know poo poo and it's gonna be easy, and then you fail miserably because woops, there's a different kind of complexity there.

make objects that either encapsulate information or manipulate it, never both idk if that's an "oo design" principle but it should be e.g. write a class hierarchy of DOM nodes and then write some other parser/serialiser classes that produce/consume trees of those objects. io streams should be objects sure but said parsers/serialisers work work equally well as plain old functions. oh you want to actually manipulate the nodes? then either pick either a mess of dynamic casting and admit your type system is not up to the job, or contrive some visitors where you have to do a whole bunch of bureaucracy if closures aren't a thing in your language. java-style oop is poo poo and c++-style oo doesn't even know what the gently caress it's doing with its life. and just lol if you don't even have optional strong typing. oop is such poo poo

qntm posted:wait, so the observation "Methodologies requiring disciplined consistency are fragile" is from the same guy who invented agile, a methodology involving time-boxed development iterations and daily status meetings? My guess is that Agile goes (or intended to go) that way more to support consistency than to be strict in terms of things you should do. The original idea appeared to be to force communication to report quickly on issues and problems to readjust, not to tell you how to micro-manage a team and give them very strict schedules to exhaust them. Then people actively selling the methodology and the courses had to set up certification and poo poo, and make that process rigid as hell, and the businesses adopting it just decided to disguise waterfall into sprints and more gantt charts (because you gotta track these sprint items!). In the end, nothing changed at all. Instead of taking ideas that were about adapting to the reality of software development (poo poo happens, adapt quickly to the unexpected, people are poo poo at estimates, customers never know what they want so reprioritize, have tight feed-back loops, etc.), it was sold and adopted as a system allowing you to press more juice out of your devs. Of course, everybody but developers were happy about it. Then the devs just ignored yet another methodology where stand-ups were done sitting down for 20 minutes every morning, and kept going their merry way.
