Since we're on the subject of language differences today, it's worth noting that Eric Lippert wrote his own entry on why he thinks VB shouldn't have ++ and --. I'm not sure if he saw my original thoughts on the subject, but it's interesting to see the similiarities and differences in reasoning. Eric also privately asked me about a different reason for not requiring Partial on partial types, but I'm going to cover that later this week - I've blogged enough for today.
