Translating a little bit of (microsoft) double talk…
This is so hilarious. I absolutely love it.
[Remember WinFS? Remember we spent thousands of years of developer effort and billions of dollars, and delayed Vista by years… and ended up canning the whole thing. Well the only thing we salvaged from the whole sorry fiasco, was something called the ADO.Net Entity Framework. It allows you to use three synonyms, — entity, object and model — with three other synonyms — schema, domain and framework — to produce up to 36 different connotations from just two simple concepts. There’s no problem so simple that developers can’t over engineer it. Anyway — when we say ‘Significant Investments’ we mean billions of lost dollars! and, well, let’s be honst, we really mean, F*** YOU DHH! You cannot hope to challenge us! We are massive! We are the borg! We will add your technical and cultural distinctiveness to our own! We do not sleep!]
