I might be wrong, but COBOL isn't being actively developed as a language anymore .. PHP however is still solving problems and under constant development and improving all the time.

"for a language to ever end up in a place with that sort of library functions is a pretty big red flag." At the time it was reasonable .. but PHP evolved and learned lessons, it didn't just stop there as you seem to be saying

"haphazardly accumulated features" is not an explanation, it's a subjective point of view. "it's not very liked one due to it's flaws", PHP is very well liked, just not by everyone .. which goes for most t

For someone that works on Go at Google I'm shocked by your very much subjective view of PHP. Elitist much?

PHP is making strides to remove legacy pain points. Check the changelogs i.e. http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.4.0 As to parameter ordering .. I've been using PHP for so long now that they've been memory to commi

I get what you're saying. However without a government you are simply relying on people to be good and fair to each other. I don't know how long it's been since you last checked the people state of affairs, but no matter ho

Nice rant. But it doesn't change the very simple fact that you have been spreading ignorance in regard to PHPs capabilities. You also show nothing but a very subjective view of PHP based on, what I can only guess at, is your own gut
