I have no hate for PHP, it’s been a tool in my toolbox for over a decade, I think it has a lot of good qualities, and it has made me a lot of money.
That said, after ten years of use, I still see something like:
function_returning_false_or_int() > -1
And sometimes have the wrong intuition about what it does.
Now, nobody should write that shit in the first place, but turns out it’s equivalent to ‘!== false’.
‘(int)false’ is zero, but ‘false > -1’... is not true.
