Why real developers should hate PHP!

borfast.com

"Real developers" are too busy developing to complain about why X language sucks for Y reasons. There are many tools available to us developers. Use the ones you see fit and forget wasting time blasting other developers for using tools you don't like.

This. A million times this.

I've used other languages, I've done C# development, I've done Python development... but I currently do PHP development, and you know what? It's fine.

As long as you follow good practices and use things in a way that doesn't make your life unpleasant, then all is well and you can get on with your day.

here we go again. PHP powers 244M sites which is 80% of the net. who cares if it sucks.
