     @clacke some time around 2010 I had to review some PHP code, after hearing how awesomely different it was than the PHP of the past.

     Then I saw the same shit I wrote back in 2001 or so.

     PHP may not be dead, but it should be.

     And still today, if you want to be sure that your site can be hosted almost anywhere, even cheap shared hosting, you're likely to use #PHP instead of any of the list above (or Java Servlets / Java Server Pages, Node.js, and more).

     Yeah, well, I know one shouldn't blame tools. But the other way around sure feels like victim blaming.

     @jens
     You are how you code. Try adhering to PSR's and use modern PHP. It's very great.
