No bites yet, so I've decided to post the first hint:WSO-CCC-OTD 2015-08-05[^].
Come on, don't let me just hang there!

If I knew the answer, I'd (probably) post it.
But...I have nothing.
Nothing at all.
Zip.
Nada.
Nill.
Zero.
Zilch.
Nought.
Nix.
In fact, diddly squat.
Sorry.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Well played Sir, well played indeed!
I bow to you and your magnificent, well crafted circumlocution.

No arguments from me - I'll leave you hanging.

There's no amount of persuasion will make me come up with the CCC for tomorrow.

From Griff's comments I'm guessing that he solved it, but he isn't very cooperative either.

We've both been burned one time too many. Sorry, but it's up to super - make the hint easier for him 
|

Your hint actually derailed the thought process. I am going to think for another 30 mins before I raise my white flag
cheers,
Super

Cheers!

That's the four hours - you win.
What's the answer?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What, no second hint?

Pure coincidence, I assure you: I have no idea even with your second hint!

Great video on keeping your solutions simple and NOT using anything with the word "Repository" in it. I also found some of his illustrations, both verbal and visual, quite funny.

I'm writing repositories right now, but they are simple facades that define the interface of our data access layer, nothing more.
Often enough the real horrors begin when a class name contains 'Manager' or 'Helper', but I guess 'Repository' is often enough in this fashion as well.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

You should watch the video. I have always been against most use of patterns and abstraction, so I like what I hear. You may not agree, I don't know.

Sorry, no time right now. The boss wants me to do some work.
I have nothing against having layers. Separation of concerns (as way as strengthening the single responsibility principle) in each layer has proven to be very helpful to keep things tidy.
In the past I have seen bad examples of overdesign (using every pattern known to man at least twice and adding every available framework for and against everything) or total anarchy (the usual spaghetti mess).
I don't know which of the two I dislike more. Why can so many people not go the straightest way towards their goal?

Now imagine a 2013Helper, a 2014Helper and a 2015Helper class.
Static classes ofcourse, no inheritance

I read his blog from time to time. I see he has been a member for over 10 years with little activity though.

The man is busy...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I'm busy working on a WPF MVVM project now where the developer liked to use patterns, lots of abstraction and base classes etc. A few too many layers in some cases. Like an onion that makes you want to cry.

Summarize the video...
What's wrong with repositories?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
