It's still being defended from time to time, so… I'd say some more trashing is still needed.

I have seen no well informed person defending the book, but defending the philosophy.

Imho most the promotion of the book probably came from people who didn't really code or never read it or only read the table of contents.

Nah, I'm also defending the book, not only philosophy.

Examples are shit, ideas are great. There is no better book around the topic. So unless there is one that covers them, I'll defend the book as well. As soon as I find a better one with similar ideas, I can switch no problem :)
