PUBLIC MARKS from amyrussell with tags "layered architecture" & abstractions

Speaking in terms of abstractions can cause a peculiar kind of paralysis to occur by letting developers avoid the specifics longer than necessary. You might have been part of a discussion in the past where your team struggled to define the names of each layer in a system or wrestled with the impedance caused by conflicts between the logical versus physical aspects of layers in an application. These are symptoms of what I am referring to.
