Ahh okay, I get it. This is pretty accurate. I do think they arrived to that from different places though. PHP being more about getting shit done and iterating

Ahh okay, I get it. This is pretty accurate. I do think they arrived to that from different places though. PHP being more about getting shit done and iterating quickly, and Go having the opinion that the wrong abstraction is worse than no abstraction at all. In Go’s case, it’s more of a reaction against the overuse of abstraction and GoF patterns in C++/Java/C# IMO.
