3am thought: EF/LINQ

We have SQL (pronounced sequel), but LINQ could just as easily have been IQL — Integrated Query Language — pronounced equal.

Sequel and Equal.

One queries data, the other expresses relationships directly in code.

Missed naming opportunity… or maybe it’s time to start a trend? 😄
