Overheard: CRUD

Steve Jones, CRUD is Crap

Steve says:

Looking at the latest raft of .NET, Ruby, Java and the like CRUD “tools” really is pretty depressing, not so much that they are bad (they aren’t) but because people seem to be still insisting on coding this dull and uninteresting crap and looking for yet more ways to “optimise” their code for a task that should be tooled.

Doug Justice posted something interesting (and positive) on CRUD tools.
