Thanks. I hate it.
I'm going to spend this thread agreeing with Rust fans, and I hate that the most. (I love you all, really, but you're fun to try to wind up.)
OOP sucks because Inheritance sucks. This person's brief non-shitty experience doesn't change that.
Languages built around OOP suck where they use inheritance instead of interfaces.
Inheritance is isn't always a terrible choice. But it is a terrible choice often enough that we need to warn the next generation.
But also, when it is not a terrible choice for a problem it is often not the best choice or at the very least equally good as other options that work in vastly more cases.
ultra rare I've successfully inherited a concrete class, rarely an abstract one and 99% just impl an interface.
