- sitkack 6y agoC and Unix hindered a whole lot. It was the PHP of its day.
- martinlaz 6y agoNice analogy. Although it's very unlikely that PHP will ever be as highly regarded as are C and Unix today.
- tomsmeding 6y agoI wanted to say that C is not really very highly regarded nowadays, but that only adds extra php-directed snark to your post, which is not wholly a bad thing.
- gvjddbnvdrbv 6y agoHave you used modern PHP? Its a great language these days.
- wglb 6y agoI am struggling to understand your analogy here?
- anitil 6y agoOrdered the book, but would you be willing to go in to the issues around C while I wait for it to arrive?
- wglb 6y agoI don't have the book in my office, but essentially "In our conversation she talks about what that transition was like as well as why it is important to increase the diversity in the field and how C has grievously wounded the study of computer science."
