Software disenchantment

How we used to set a variable in assembly language:

  mov [foo], ax

  // constants.js
  export const SET_FOO = 'SET_FOO'


  // actions.js
  import { SET_FOO } from './constants'

  export const setFoo = foo => ({ type: SET_FOO, payload: foo })


  // reducer.js
  import { SET_FOO } from './constants'

  const initialState = { foo: 0 }

  const reducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
    const { type, payload } = action
    switch (type) {
      case SET_FOO:
        return { ...state, foo: payload }
       
      default:
        return state
  }

  export default reducer


  // Component.js
  import { connect } from 'react-redux'
  import { setFoo } from './actions'

  class Component extends React.Component {
    handleSetFoo = foo => {
      this.props.dispatch(setFoo(foo))
    }
  }

  export default connect()(Component)

    public class VariableSetter	{
    	private String variableName;
    	private String variableValue;
    
    	private VariableSetter();
    
    	public VariableSetter variableSetterInstance()	{
    		return new VariableSetter();
    	}
    
    	public void setVariableName(String variableName)	{
    		this.variableName = variableName;
    	}
    
    	public void setVariableValue(String variableValue)	{
    		this.variableValue = variableValue;
    	}
    
    	public String getVariableName()	{
    		return this.variableName;
    	}
    
    	public String getVariableValue()	{
    		return this.variableValue;
    	}
    }
    
    public class VariableSetterFactory	{
	    private VariableSetterFactor()	{
    	}
    
    	public static getVariableSetterFactory()	{
    		return new VariableSetterFactory();
    	}
    
    	public VariableValueSetter getVariableSetter()	{
    		return VariableSetter.variableSetterInstance();
    	}
    }

You can read it here multiple times "we are pay to make features", the not so passive sentiment that we should be relegated to code monkeys that accomplish business objectives is just so sad to me.

Nobody wants to just write some god damn code anymore. They include entire frameworks instead of just writing a couple helper functions.
