Good, just the way it read. As for constantly mocking other languages, that was not directly pointed at you, but at the constant swarm of people always going about php sucks, php this, php that... We got it, you people don't like PHP, try t

Way to talk down to people. I use PHP as my main language for web development, but also am a frequent C user. I have done projects in C# and Python. While I like C# and Python - actually for scripting I tend to go for Python rather than PHP

There is no business advantages at using Python/Rails over PHP. (and vice versa) You should only use the technology that suits your company the best (in terms of needs and knowledge -never EVER start a company based on a tech you don't unde

It's something I find interesting. PHP "haters" keep pointing at flaws, yet in almost 10years of doing PHP, the only thing that really ever annoyed me is the string and array parameters order... And I've done a wide range of thing in PHP, i

Good to know other people want to share about successful scaling with PHP. On the downside, I have a book cooking on the same exact subject, with release planned September (self-publish, about 80% done), but now not sure if it's worth conti

Or there is a shortage of developers in your area. My previous company was offering competitive salaries, good environment, challenging work, and we had trouble filling position with decent developers...

Probably. When going in and out of UK I rarely see a Border Agent, I just scan my passport (electronic) and an automatic door opens.

As someone who used to work over there (Pornhub, Youporn, ...), it is not a question of legacy. If you use PHP the way it's meant to be used, you are not gonna have any surprise, and it'll run faster than the alternatives (or close too), fo

This. If you want some "real PHP", look into the MicroPHP manifesto ( http://microphp.org ) and the libraries/frameworks associated. I, as a heavy PHP user, do not like the path taken by frameworks such as ZF or Symfony. It goes against PHP

Have you looked into the LUA scripting option for Redis? Allows for some processing to happen on the server side, and it's quite powerful.

Finding hosting for PHP is not hard. If you like Heroku, check out PhpFog.com or Orchestra.io. It's like magic too. "PHP is not a good language" what is a good language? To take your example, I do enjoy the feel of PHP, it feels natural to

- PHP is the easiest to find hosting for, to setup and to learn. - PHP is still the best at generating web pages. - PHP offers all the tools needed to build strong applications (PHPUnit, xDebug, XHProf, ...) - PHP is not as bad as people li

Relevant XKCD : http://xkcd.com/927/ While I do agree that there is a need for a real packaging system for PHP, I don't think Composer/Packagist is the answer. Packaging is a real hard "exercise", I've dabbled with it, and it's certainly

Well, if like in this case, he warned me and I told him to "fuck off", I kinda would be grateful, even more like "Should've seen that one coming...".

Yes but has of 5.4 it is now considered stable, whereas before it was still experimental (even tho it worked fine).

I'd like to point out that the service that was hacked has nothing to do with Youporn itself, it was run by a third party. So please stop calling it the Youporn leak, nothing has leaked out of Youporn itself, just a careless third party. "Y

Youporn used to work on Catalyst, it's been rewritten using Symfony 2. As for Pornhub it's running a custom PHP framework.

Yep, i've been a Redis lobbyist for over a year at this company (i use to be the Lead Software Engineer on Youporn/Pornhub), and i'm really happy to see them using it and using it properly.

I really agree on the "Extensions & Libraries" bit. PEAR should not be linked there, it is outdated, filled with really bad pieces of code, and generally not useful at all. They should really focus on a central library repository, they

Valid article, mostly. But the point is still valid, and i feel that most people using Redis do not get it, it is a data structure server, it's not that hard to understand... Use it as such and you won't be disappointed.
