No it isn't. I never compared it to any other language commonly used for web development. I never even hinted at that being my argument.
- papsosouid 14y agoIs this a bad attempt at trolling? You said "PHP is good b/c it allows a lot of people to be productive". Everything else is equally good at that. Simply not pointing it out doesn't make it go away. So your argument is "PHP is equal to other languages at X", even when you word it as "PHP is good at X" while trying to ignore every other language being equally good at X.
- lonnyk 14y ago>Is this a bad attempt at trolling? I really have the same question for you. You keep assuming I was implying something I wasn't in my original statement. I do not know why you keep doing this. Clearly we have two different opinions on two things: 1. PHP 2. What I said. I think we should just agree to disagree on both, because we are not getting anywhere. EDIT: I just want to add that IMO - you can call something 'good' without comparing it to something else. It would only be a comparison if I called it 'better'.
