I'm really not sure where to begin with my criticism of this article. Perhaps the McDonalds kitchen straw man. Or maybe the outright fabrications like:

"Big things, like obscuring the networking stack under so many countless layers of abstraction that it’s virtually impossible to even imagine what bytes are actually going over the wire."

The only actual examples of "incompatibilities" that weren't lies were trivialities -- who cares if DirectX is left handed or right handed? Flipping your Z axis is trivial.

As someone who has extensively used both .NET and other platforms (C++, Java, etc.), this article strikes me as the naive views of someone who hasn't learned enough .NET to form a cogent opinion.
