I like the idea of F# type providers but last time I tried (two years ago) they were pretty shit compared to any mainstream ORM/alternative - has that improved ? Also ORM for simple row selects is a straw-man - their use case is deserializing, updating relationship graphs where they hide away a bunch of code. Should that code be hidden is a different question - but pretending it's there to save you from typing SELECT * FROM foo is kind of disingenuous. Editing graph data structures in most FP languages is just not compatible with OOP approach hence no ORM.
