...except PHP.
- karlshea 11y agoExactly. I'm not trying to bash Ruby, but I haven't done any programming with it for about 6 years. I just want to get some web thing running on my home server, or get some gems installed for Compass or whatever (which to be fair is now a lot easier with bundler). What I don't want to do is figure out how RVM works for the third time and how to install it globally instead of just for my user account so Apache site one can use one version and Apache site two can use another. Everything in that world changes every year and if you're not keeping up it's a huge mess.
- spoiler 11y agoHow is it not problematic with PHP? It's just as problematic from my experiences (I work for a hosting company and we have various PHP setups). Unless you install PHP with a certain prefix—which you can do for other languages—I don't see how PHP solves the problem.
