c++ is good, but only when it doesn't conceal the operation of memory. smart pointers are a category mistake

does leaky abstraction refer to when it's necessary to know an unreasonable amount about how an ostensibly self-contained module is implemented, or does it refer to breaking the abstraction now and then (lol, sometimes I access the DB through my "data layer" other times I just send a SQL query straight from my HTTP request handler method)

it refers to the notion that software runs on physical hardware with the limitations that implies. some people find that very upsetting

spolsky's original article is totally reasonable: it says that abstractions are everywhere, that all of them leak to some degree, and that pretending an abstraction is perfect or even perfectible can lead to just as much damage as actively resisting the abstraction haskell provides several leaky abstractions, the most obvious being that its abstractions can easily literally leak

i mostly hear it used for "i made a wrapper to make the code look nicer but it only actually works for the specific parameters and order of calls currently in the code, don't change anything or it will break"

lol i went to wikipedia to check and there needs some extra sourced sentences in there on why hes poo poo at programming imo "In 1996 Raymond took over development of the open-source email software "popclient", renaming it to Fetchmail.[8] Soon after this experience, in 1997, he wrote the essay "The Cathedral and the Bazaar",...."

i remember stumbling across this a couple years ago http://catb.org/gpsd/AIVDM.html claims "lead of GPSD, a widely-used open-source GPS/AIS monitor daemon" and to be a domain expert (but with counterclaims that he has trouble understanding parts of it). i don't know much about the history of this project but if his contributions are like anything else he's worked on it's probably bad
