Can we please change PHP's die() function to unalive()?
- kyleee 2y agounalive() offends me, let’s do sunset() instead
- latentsea 2y agosunset() triggers me due to all the times I've seen companies "sunset" APIs only to still have them in production 5 years later. Let's change it to cancelled()
- randomdata 2y agocancelled() makes it seem as if PHP is a sexual predator – which may be the case, but as a matter of course... How about goodbye()?
- mikestew 2y agoWe shouldn’t be using judgemental words like “good” and “bad”. Let’s use bye().
- elwell 2y agogoodbye() could offend someone whose father "went out to get a pack of smokes" and never came back
- latentsea 2y agoOk, let's change it to fetchmilk()
- randomdata 2y agoBound to offend someone who found out their father was the milkman. Make it idontevenknowanymore()
- latentsea 2y agoOk... null() it is then!
- exe34 2y agoThis is double plus good.
- handojin 2y agoseems lacking in gratitude. how about kthxbye()?
- duskwuff 2y agoIt's been synonymous with exit() since at least PHP 4.
- eesmith 2y agoBut that's what you call to make your process be a zombie. ;) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_process https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_process
- layer8 2y agoHow about depart().
