- ChuckMcM 16y agoThe first part was the context, "People are trying to [take] PHP in ways it can't easily go ..." Tools make hard jobs doable, the right tool for the job can make a difficult job trivially easy. The definition of the 'right' tool can then be expressed as 'doesn't cause you pain' and the inverse works as well, if your tool is causing you pain then it is not the right tool for what you're trying to accomplish. Probably an example of tm;du (too meta; didn't understand) :-)
