“… you can find frameworks not just in software, but also in ordinary life. If you buy package holidays, you're buying a framework - they transport you to some place, put you in a hotel, feed you and your activities have to fit into the shape provided by the framework (say, go into the pool and swim there). If you travel independently, you are composing libraries. You have to book your flights, find your accommodation and arrange your program (all using different libraries). It is more work, but you are in control - and you can arrange things exactly the way you need.”

My favorite blog post / presentation is Sandi Metz "The Wrong Abstraction", but this one is up there. Definitely punches above its weight for a small obscure post.

Yeah duplication way better than the wrong abstraction. Just write the dang switch statement
