Salesforce charges and arm and a leg for extra sandbox instances anyway, and at that scale you aren’t paying Amazon for compute either. A full-copy sandbox past the included one for Unlimited Edition orgs is something like 30% your annual s

Not at all how Salesforce works, they take a lot of pride in their multi-tenant setup (for better or worse). Every org on a given instance shares the same application servers and Oracle cluster. If I were to make a Salesforce competitor tha

Any of the otherlang-linq projects miss the forest for the trees, the whole point of LINQ is that it's not a set of chain-able methods on IEnumerable - providers get access to the expression tree and can use them to do all sorts of c

It also has a timer built in that, unlike the default iOS Clock app, allows multiple timers to be run simultaneously. Just tap on any time in the recipe to start it as well. Paprika is well worth the couple bucks.

Open what source? Everyone has access to the winmd files necessary, the COM ABI is documented - there’s been nothing stopping anyone from doing this. All of the work MS has done on these bindings is MIT licensed as well.
