I was always under the impression that PHP hate comes from design flaws that make it easy to make mistakes, not from it being necessarily slower.

- CmonDev 13y agoNode.js is also based around a subpar language, so it's not necessarily the main cause either.
- aaronem 13y agoOne might argue that Javascript is considerably less sub-par than PHP, though; speaking purely from my own experience, I've found that writing Javascript involves a significantly lower probability of the language attempting, at random intervals, to shatter my kneecaps with a crowbar.
- girvo 13y agoI've had the opposite experience! Given a choice, I'd avoid either, though. Scala spoils me.
- regularfry 13y agoBoth languages are painful, and both have a painful stdlib, but JavaScript's stdlib is much, much smaller, ergo less messy.
