You are saying things about a pattern that are wrong, and there's no other kind of wrong other than plain :). The only thing I said that was an assumption about your experience was related to the comment you made about "inept developers" - I felt it showed a level of inexperience working on large development teams. I never said anything, however, about your skills. I respect your skills. Especially your skills with a bowstaff and with numchucks :) <napolean dynamite reference> The truth is that there are no silver bullets (that you seem so > desperately convince me to follow). > There are also no "wrong" or "right". There are patterns that work in > one environment and don't work in others. First of all, I'm not trying to convince you or anyone else to use one pattern over another. This all started when you made false claims about "fat" constructors and calling it bad design to assign instance properties from within the constructor, saying it "clogs performance".... all untrue statements. That's all I was doing - pointing out that you are incorrect about the pattern. I never said the pattern was more correct vs another pattern. I was simply explaining the benefits, why we use it, and debunking the myths around it, that you seemed to be defending with really no basis. Ryan, no need to get offensive I am sorry if my rebuttals got a bit "point blank". I don't think I really said anything too offensive, but if I did I truly do apologize. Hope there's no hard feelings. After all, there's nothing like a heated debate once in a while to fill in the gaps of a busy day :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
