Could just be me, but it seems like there's a decided bias against PHP on a lot of HN threads. As someone who uses PHP on a regular basis, I'd love it if you could point out some of these "eye stinging bugs". I experiment a LOT with other languages and I don't find anything lacking in PHP that I need in a scripting language. I've never been unable to accomplish anything that I needed to in it, and I personally don't recall ever having to resort to unsightly hacks. All this whining is getting rather old. PHP is not Clojure, Ruby, Node or [insert your favorite language/tech here], and guess what? Some of us like that, a lot.
