PHP 5.5 may be great but a lot of people in the real world still don't use namespaces and other things introduced in 5.3.
That is why people are always calling out PHP because most of the language and most of its developers appear to be in suspended animation.
Developers who use modern tools like Composer, Behat, frameworks other than Codeigniter etc. just aren't that many unfortunately. They're definitely not the majority, like they are over in the Ruby/Python camp.
- stephenr 13y agoRight, PHP is used by lots of developers and some of them make bad decisions or have limited experience.. Nothing at all like the first group of geniuses who decided Rails should store session DATA in a COOKIE BY DEFAULT, or the second, larger group of geniuses that routinely upload the secret token used to encrypt/decrypt said cookie, to public repos on Github/etc.

- eevee 13y agoDespite your sarcasm, that is a significant part of actually solving a problem: getting the solution into people's hands. Would you be very impressed with all the improvements if Ford's new line of 100% safe cars all cost millions of dollars?
- Killswitch 13y agoSo it's Ford's fault that people aren't buying new cars? Weird.
