   Things I rarely use:
   🚫 Currying
   🚫 Middleware
   🚫 Inheritance
   🚫 Polymorphism
   🚫 IoC containers
   🚫 The actor model
   🚫 Aspect-oriented programming
   🚫 Complex design patterns

   My typical approach:
   ✅ Write small functions
   ✅ Try to keep most functions pure
   ✅ Compose them together

   Programming doesn’t have to be complicated. https://twitter.com/housecor/status/1684903334115753985?s=46

     @nixCraft This really depends on what you are developing. For library developers the set of "often used things" likely looks different. However, I agree that people tend to code like "give me a hammer and everything is a nail".

     @nixCraft Why complicate things when you can do with small functions?
