It's hard to find a worse example than php, because when many "bad" languages fail in one or the other category, php seems to fail in most categories.
* Java has a really repetitive syntax, but it's libraries might make up for that.
* C++ with all it's features has bazillion ways to shoot yourself, but it's arguably fast and the syntax is bearable.

- gjm11 9y agoIt doesn't in fact imply that PHP is slow. What it says about PHP (besides "php seems to fail in most categories" which doesn't imply any single specific failure because most != all) is this: "But php has both an ugly syntax, horrendous stdlib, and fame of security issues." You will notice that none of those specific complaints is about speed.
