The way you worded it implied PHP had insane multithreading support.

Im sorry, but what do you mean by "sane support for multithreading"? You are aware that PHP has no threading support, right? I mean you seem pretty damn confident in your opinion of PHP for someone obviously lacking in any real world expe

Back up there EvilTerran. Let's take a couple of steps back in this thread. I originally took issue with the OP because his piece was nothing short of a rant. I've spent the last 11+ years of my professional life developing with PHP. So

That's not a problem though, is it.

Cool story, bro. Edit: OK, I'll bite. Um, so you're telling me, I lack self awareness because I said "fucking childishness" .. and that you understand me on some level because of it. You might want to get down of that high horse of yours.

I'm sorry, but at what point did I say I was refusing to "expand and learn something new"?

by xd 14y ago
"You can't do: $something->doStuff()[0]" Yes you can. "Speed" Care to expand on this one?

Hey Jeff, let's throw down the gauntlet. You're obviously an experienced developer. I've been in the game for over 11years so should have enough experience to tackle you on this bigoted rant. You choose a problem that you think PHP can't

Great idea but I can see this hitting ebay from copycats before these guys even get into production.

The change was an improvement .. I'm not sure what point you are trying to make? Maybe I misunderstood you or you don't understand the change.

"healthy debate" Yes! This is what we do need, what we do NOT need is bullshit like "piddly shit" which you seemed to be defending. But please, tell me of one, just one, "severe flaw" you find in PHP, as it is today. And I will enter into

So how would you propose changes are made to an "API"? Never? The change was made in a new version, with the changes clearly laid out in the changelog .. what more do you want? It's funny. PHP gets a bashing for the rotten bits .. when th

The quote was tongue in cheek.

"I use it for some piddly shit because that's what it's good for." The bigotry from this community when it comes to PHP has left me sick to my stomach.

Would I be right in understanding; Apple can remove an application, from your devices, you have already paid for? Edit: This comment summed up my feelings on the subject: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4104485

This is utter tripe. It goes from saying don't use javascript to use a high level language that translates down to javascript. His main example of why javascript isn't suitable is an anecdote about a badly developed code base written in ja

My understanding of bitcoin is that it is a currency based on "mining" virtual worth. So people with "real" money and free time; mine the resources. So the wealth goes to those with the "real" money and time. Is that right?

As a dad-to-be I find this "advice" to be awfully elitist and wouldn't entertain it with my child in the slightest. Judging your friends on there abilities is sad .. friendships are not made this way.
