Best Quote Ever The God object is an example of an anti pattern I love it Out there I was trying to research programming languages and ended up feeling like I was looking into philosophy and theology Anyway I think that sentence would do well to include a brief decription of what is meant by an anti pattern You can click through to the link but I think that the references in the article should be a bit more contained It s a zinger of a sentence but it refers to a very specific piece of knowledge that the article shouldn t assume the average reader has Some minor explanation here would go a long way to make it a little bit less of a WTF sounding statement It almost comes across as a bit of sensationalism Almost It is however a fascinating article Kudos to those of you who put this thing together
