I can barely remember the days when objects were seen like a new, shiny, promising technology. Today, objects are often positioned between...

We used to be taught that, by spending enough time thinking about a problem, we would come up with a "perfect" model, one that e...

A week ago or so, Ralf Westphal published yet another critique of my post on living without a controller . He also proposed a different des...

So, this is not, strictly speaking, the next post to the previous post. Along the road, I realized I was using a certain style in the littl...

When we interact with the physical world, we develop an intuitive understanding of some physical forces. It does not take a PhD in physics t...

This post should have been about power law distribution of class / method sizes, organic growth of software and living organisms, Alexandr...

In my most popular post ever , I argued (quoting Alan Kay and Peter Coad along the way) that classes ending in –er (like the infamous Contro...

I've been absent for a few months now. The thing is, I'm spending my little free time writing a non-trivial Android app. Of course, ...

It had to happen. After my post on Yahtzee , my agile friend (Marco) has come back with more code katas, adding to the pile we already disc...

So, here I am, back to my unpopular :-) series on the Physics of Software. It's time to explore the run-time side of entanglement, or mo...

We're all familiar with this scene: the good guys trying to save the day (or the world) by defusing a bomb. Quickly running out of time,...

Where I present seemingly unrelated facts that are, in fact, not unrelated at all :-). The CAP Theorem If you keep current on technology, yo...

If you take a walk in my hometown, and head for the center, you may stumble into a building like this: from a distance, it's a relat...

In my previous post on this series, I used the well-known Shape problem to explain polymorphism from the entanglement perspective. We'v...
