The trolling asked for LINQ, !dynamics, and !single_file_database. Given that C#/.NET is moving away from LINQ as the goto abstraction over databases, it's hard to see a person requring those things ever using Massive in the first place.

Of course the idea that there is no mailing list for Massive where this sort of internet banter can occur...well that's exactly why there is no mailing list.

What would you say they're moving towards? I have to shamefully admit that I never learned LINQ, preferring to write and use raw SQL(which can be unwieldy if you're dealing with the type of database that could really use an ORM), but I didn't know there was something else that trumps LINQ?

.net is moving away from LINQ? Where is that and how did I miss this? Do you have a link?

That seems totally insane.
