Stop Over-Engineering (ddj.com)

Death by design pattern.


But I must use CSS and OOP and code that can deal with any character set! I have a large programming ego to defend!


Cofounders with better artistic abilities tweak the minute details of the appearance of my webapps a million times until they get it "just right" - without driving me insane in the process. I don't just want CSS to inflate my ego... I need it to keep me from going postal.


But the question is: is it over-engineering?
