Momentum is the thing that truly matters.
That's certainly true. You learn by doing stuff. But PHP actually is a bad language, and the guy would be better off starting with something else.
Why use PHP for X years until you realize you need to move on, when you could start out with something you can still use even after that point? Even worse, he could get stuck using PHP because it's comfortable and he's used to dealing with its brokenness.

- sillygeese 11y agoAlright, why use it for even five days, when you could be using something that's not a dead-end (or detrimental) for your development as a programmer? You can get moving with a good language instead, which was my point.
