PHP is a toy language that's now being used in some reasonably grownup ways.
I've built a static analysis tool for it, and it sort of feels like writing a CAD tool for lego bricks.
- GrumpyNl 10y agoMaybe PhP is to hard for you?
- muglug 10y agoThe point isn't that it's easy or hard. It doesn't require the user to understand things like scope or the rudiments of typing to get started, which means it's insanely permissive.
- homersapien 10y agoWhich is like saying that chainsaws suck because they don't stop you from cutting off your own leg.
- muglug 10y agoYeah, I could understand that perception if chainsaws were given away for free to everyone who owned a house in the woods, and if they were touted as an easy-to-use entry-level sawing device.
