When Sarah Palin was running for office I heard a British politician remark that Sarah Palin represented the negation of politics. She appealed to people who were fed up with politics and politicians. For some reason Joel's argument reminds me of this. He seems to have examples of over the top designs gone bad but in the end I can't find much of real value to take away from this article. Is the visitor pattern too much? What about hibernate or other ORM tools?
