Re: Is too much abstraction a bad thing?

[chromatic]

I've written and tested more than my fair share of constructors, accessors, and destructors, more than enough database connection, execution, and retrieval code, and plenty of parameter serializing and deserializing code. I won't miss any of those.

My goal is not to write all of my code from scratch by hand. My goal is to do something. Anything that distracts me from that, including programming, is a problem.
