How Google uses logic in machine learning
"Don’t repeat yourself" (DRY) is usually good advice, but you have to get the abstractions right. Otherwise they quickly become unmaintainable.
Here's how it usually plays out:
Loop these steps a couple of times and you quickly get an unmaintainable mess.

If you find yourself passing parameters and adding conditional paths through shared code, the abstraction is wrong. It's no longer right for the codebase.
Wrong abstractions are no longer common abstractions; they are series of conditions mixed with vaguely related ideas. This makes them:

In the long run, it's better to fix wrong abstractions ASAP than to add more code and make everything more complicated.
Your goal is to remove the abstraction and conditionals, and to reduce each caller to only the code it needs. Here's how:
Once done, you can start anew, re-isolating duplication and re-extracting abstractions.

Start by implementing the problem in the concrete, not in the abstract. Don't try to guess what interfaces you will need. Discover them.
Only after implementing the problem in the concrete, go on to decoupling. Ask yourself: "What do I need to decouple to make it better, to allow it to deal with change as the data or business changes?".
Leaving the code in the concrete is also an option. Don't force abstractions when they are not necessary. Prefer duplication over the wrong abstraction because duplication is cheaper to deal with.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
