OH MY GOD!!! He is back!:)
How much time has passed since I learned design patterns using your playlist. How many things have changed!
So happy you are here again!
Thumb up in advance!🙂

First make it work, then make it clean, and finally make it fast (if needed indeed)

3rd strike rule - agree almost completely, there's rare cases when 2nd strike is enough too

The problem is that in a lot of commercial projects, "It's more important to move forward" is also true the third time you need to duplicate code, so you never have time to stop and refactor

I think Christopher came to us from another planet to help humanity understand the fundamental knowledge of software engineering, drawing upon our bright minds. He possesses pure pedagogical talent to distill the most abstract ideas into something digestible at the initial stage of consumption.

Thank you, Chris, and please keep going! 😎

There is such thing as too much refactoring... adding too much abstraction and anticipating "future" modifications is a nightmare in the long run.
Thank you for gr8 vids really helped a LOT! 😄

You provided the best argument for when to use composition over inheritance I've ever heard in this video with the 3 strikes rule. All the other times I've seen people arguing for composition they are either using inheritance wrong or stuck in a strictly typed language, which greatly reduces the power of inheritance. While good use of inheritance doesn't fit in with the SOLiD principles perfectly it still fits with them with a little leeway for interpretation, and with inheritance over composition it is what makes the most powerful pattern thrive, the strategy pattern.
