Actually I am fine with that headline ("PHP must die").
I didn't bother reading the article, because I know all the arguments about what is broken in PHP (and also what is not) and it was unlikely I would learn anything new and I have better things to spend my time on. I just read it as saying something like "Shaolin Kung Fu should die" It is just an opinion about a tool, not necessarily a correct one.
Now if he had said "PHP programmers must die", then sure, I can see why that would bother people.
- jacquesm 17y agoTrue enough, but it was the most recent example from HN, I can find you much better ones if you want. In fact, I could probably find more of them than I care to remember, which is why I posted that bit of text in the first place.
