9:13 - It's a Lambda syntax, not LINQ. Just so people get it right if they need to look at it further :D

The modern programmer do not understand or teach the real reason behind some of the methods. That is very bad when teaching.
Two simple one I noticed here were:
1. The main use of ToString() override is when the object is put in, for example, data structures. When a list is produced from the objects, eg in drop downs, it needs a way to represent them correctly. For example a Student object has many properties but which one and how do you want to represent them in a list. That is where you use ToString to print out Firstname + Surname or vise versa. So it is not meant to display the entire object as string. It is meant to display what you want the users to see as if it was an string.
2. The main use or serialisation is not to put them in a "nice" string format. It become very necessary to serialise an object when passing it over network or internet and deserialise on the other end. An object is made of complex properties and structures so it turns it into a block of text so it becomes a string and makes it easy to send across

Thanks for using a json so we don't have to get bogged down in database stuff... massive time saver for beginners.
