Interfaces are a great tool for writing maintainable applications, but it is possible to go "too far" with abstraction. Or maybe, it's a bad use of time to write an abstraction up front before you really know you need it. We discuss some trade-offs and examples.

  • (02:30) - Going too far with interfaces

  • (10:05) - Silly bit
