Honestly, I am just starting to use patterns as I gain a good understanding of them, I am sure I am using patterns in a few places and don't notice it, but I try to stay away from the ones I don't fully understand yet. At the same time, I feel I could be using them more. http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment3http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment3Tue, 27 Feb 2007 18:27:11 GMTI think that the reason that some people thinks that patterns are buzzwards is because of the implementation. http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment2http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment2Tue, 27 Feb 2007 18:20:20 GMTI'm not ignoring that issue, I believe its a different issue and one that should be addressed on its own. The issue I brought out was using patterns as an effective form of communication. The issue you bring up is the misuse of patterns in implementation. http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment1http://ayende.com/2146/patterns-and-buzzwards#comment1Tue, 27 Feb 2007 17:49:15 GMT
