let t =my_table
| summarize max(timestamp);
my_table
| where timestamp == t;
why doesn't this work?
I get
'where' operator: Failed to resolve column or scalar expression named 't'

Hello Hanan, I think it works with a little change.
By default Kusto returns a set of data - just like any other database. But you don't want to return a set, you are returning a single value like: " | where timestamp = datetime(2022-12-24)". This is why you need to use toscalar.
let mytable =
datatable(timestamp:datetime) [
datetime(1910-06-11),
datetime(1930-01-01),
datetime(1953-01-01),
datetime(1997-06-25),
];
let t = mytable | summarize max(timestamp);
mytable
| where timestamp == toscalar(t);
Or if you are NOT searching for a single value but the whole set, you would use the IN operator, not ==
mytable
| where timestamp in (mytable);
