This is how it starts; once someone figured out php could do more than just #include html fragments, Facebook built an empire with it. Frankly, I'm amazed Bash can do any of this. I'm happy to use a fullscreen terminal all day, and come up with too-clever unix pipelines, but damn do I hate writing anything in Bash, especially when it comes to control flow.
