Object Thinking (DV-Microsoft Professional)

Both data and function are poor choices for being a decomposition tool. Parnas provided several reasons for rejecting function. Among them are the following:
Resulting program code would be complicated, far more so than necessary or desirable.
Complex code is difficult to understand and test.
Resulting code would be brittle and hard to modify when requirements changed.
Resulting modules would lack composability—they would not be reusable outside the context in which they were conceived and designed.

In Rome, one’s first duty was to the group, clan, class, or faction upon which one depended for status. Known as gravitas, this meant sacrificing oneself for the good of the organization, and giving up one’s individuality and identifying closely with the group. In a Roman environment you go to work, the company hands you your tools, and then it holds you and your mind hostage until you sever your relationship with the organization. You are not an individual: you are owned by the organization body and mind, twenty-four hours a day. There are substantial rewards for this, however. The organization provides you with security, money, and power.

Цікава концепція-порівняння типів мислення і роботи розробників (радше незалежних розробників) з мисленням і роботою давньогрецьких митців та як протилежність їм робітників Стародавнього Риму, як осіб, які не уявляють свого існування поза межами своєї спільноти та для яких інтереси спільноти є важливішими за власні.

In ancient Greece, an individual would act as his own agent in his own behalf, or combine with other people to act together as a team. In a Greek work environment, you bring your tools to work with you, you do your stuff, and then you pack up your tools and take them home. You are an individual—an independent contractor. You are not owned body and mind.
