LINQ. Composable queries rock.

LINQ is a black-box that is often disastrous for application performance. The more LINQ in a project, the more likely the project is headed to failure.

First of all, are you aware that LINQ is not only about database access?

Second, how is it a black box? It is the particular query provider implementation that is a black box.

Third, there's absolutely no correlation between the amount of LINQ and success of a project.

Yes, I am aware. How is this relevant at all to the context of this thread?

The rest of your comment: You are simply wrong. A heavy use of LINQ is one of the surest sign that one needs to run from a project. It is almost always used and embraced by people who have no concept of the consequences, imagining that the conciseness of LINQ = programming goodness, when the opposite is generally true.
