It's getting really sad to see people come up with really anything to bash on PHP. Can't we just build the most fantastic tools and apps with whatever we want instead of giving off at the tools we use to create them?
I've been using php for almost 10 years and I didn't even know the C-api isn't documented on php.net. But what do I care? It's like saying you won't drive your car to work because there are no usage instructions of the carburator in your car manual. Seriously ... WTF? Let it go.
- RollAHardSix 14y agoThat is a great analogy. Hope you don't mind if I steal it? I've noticed this on HN, too many people are bleeding-edge, cutting-edge and seem to forget that best tools for the job are what's in your toolbox. You might not carry around a power miter but you will probably have a small hand-saw. PHP is a lot of things, but it's also taught at the local community college, and it's quick to pick-up even without collegiate education. That vastly widens my possible talent pool, my rapid development process, or training of my employees.
- risratorn 14y agoThanks, depends on what you want to use it for ... if it's to bash on php no ... else feel free to "re-use" it ... stealing gets you in jail :p
