>(multi-threading to name one) This isn't a problem in 5.5+ if you know what you're doing. That the language has a lot of people with no idea what they're doing is a testament to the fact PHP is easy to use and most others aren't for a novice, not that the language sucks. I'm not the biggest PHP fan but since 5.3 most of the criticisms are unwarranted.
