@mjtsai I think it's a broader movement; the death of OO as a "formal" CS foundation (and I think it's a great thing).

@mjtsai I'll take a language capable of expressing LINQ (relational algebra) over CoreData (OO) any day.

@landonfuller LINQ looks great. Lots of issues with Core Data, but it does have traction.

@mjtsai CoreData's traction seems to be largely a matter of circumstance; simply impossible to implement LINQ in ObjC …but now there's Swift
