What hubris. If they want
to implement others' ideas, which is fine, they should stick to models
that are fully
developed.

If we all did that, there'd be very little development of new models... :-)

OK, thanks for your comments. There are some further videos (not ncessarily
with Anders) where they actually demonstrate query expression code and
explain why it is structured the way that it is, rather than as standard
SQL. These are more about nitty-gritty coding than about personalities.

I'm experimenting with it at the moment, but it looks very promising.

Personally, I don't care who invented (or re-invented) what, as long as I
can get it in an easily assimilable form and as long as it adds value to
what I'm doing.

I'm pretty happy with C# for those reasons.

C# is a perfect example of good implementation of developed models. The models were Java
and OLE.

Before I watched the video, I thought LINQ was an improved implementation of SQL. That
would make sense. The video showed Anders has gone beyond the SQL model for queries and
far beyond the relational model for data storage.
