Sometimes it's good to talk about what not to do when designing software. In this video, I talk about the singleton and object pool patterns, both of which are object creation design patterns. I'll show you how they work in Python and discuss why the singleton pattern in particular is something you shouldn't use. The object pool can be considered a generalization of the singleton pattern, and it has its uses, but it has a few caveats.
