- arethuza 16y agoAnd even in the C# world LINQ is doing a good job of isolating developers from the details of working with SQL.
- llaxsll 16y agoFor simple apps, yes. But actually I was surprised to find out that they have been on and off plans in attempt to kill linq2sql and actually if you inspect the produced sql code(out of the box) .. well it can use a lot of optimizations. I do think o/r mappers are the way to go, although having better tools does not mean that you should start handwaving when it comes to db internals.
- ergo98 16y agoIt is, to use a Spolskyism, a leaky abstraction.
- moron4hire 16y agoMaybe if all you're doing is writing silly blogging software, then you can get away with that. I need to develop apps the report live on nation-wide sales and inventory data, down to the individual shipment. You start dealing with a database intended to hold 10, 20 years of warehoused data, application languages turn into a blur in the background.
- CoryMathews 16y agoHe stated his developers must know this not all developers. Also any web app that is not using some form of OOP must be a very small or very confusion application (confusing to modify not use).
- moron4hire 16y agoTotally not the point. C# is just an example of an application language. The point is that there is no reason why a developer can't master the full stack.
