I cannot second this enough. Uncle Bob et all have done imeasurable bad to a lot past and future devs generations.

Advocating for a perverted cloudy way of overengineered sw that builds cvs and horrible enterprise sw.

There are much better ppl to read out there. Anyone actually writing long lived sw. Linus, sam neal, anyone actually DOING it rather than living off self indulgent books.

I agree and hope that no one will come here commenting in favour of the uncle&co, what relevant software have they actually written? And how much time has been lost refactoring code from people that mindlessly followed their extremely simplified recommendations and toy examples? Let's forget them please.

I think Fitnesse [1] is quite relevant. That said, not a lot of FOSS work from someone like him, to put the things he preaches in large and complex projects that we can look at the source and learn from.

Would you mind linking to something written by Sam Neal? Not familiar with the name.
