alt Hacker News> “Coding is over, with Object Oriented programming one person who is much smarter than any of us could hope to be will develop the library just once and we will all use it going forward, forever. Once a problem is solved it never needs solving again.
This kind of happened, and it was a good thing.
I don't see how that requires OOP, as one can write a library of a series of standalone functions too and distribute that. The two are orthogonal.
