Generic Code? Just Don't

Category: Database, Data, firewall

by A long time during my career writing generic code was the ultimate goal.

You have a good idea on how to do this and have created a nice API and are happy with the results.You tell your first customer, who enabled you to write this service in the first place, how they must use your service.

I didn’t ask for this data?”You tell the customer that it is a generic service and built for the future.

Time passes and now the same cycle of development as before is happening and before you know it you are in the same situation again.
