@cjwl @landonfuller I thought half the fun with LINQ is that it knows the type of everything. Just not a good match for Objective-C.
@mikeash @landonfuller Mainly because of Apple, but it was a gaping hole that no one else had filled. And now there’s an ecosystem.
@landonfuller Could LINQ work well in Xcode without special support (just Swift auto-complete)?
@landonfuller Right. Do you see Apple making Swift-only APIs any time soon? Or could a third-party LINQ gain traction?
@landonfuller LINQ looks great. Lots of issues with Core Data, but it does have traction.
@landonfuller Not sure what your “it’s” refers to. But I agree that it’s a good thing to move beyond OO as the solution to everything.
