It doesn't matter what happens, anytime something good PHP is mentioned the thread always turns into a fight. Why can't we just stop gate keeping programming languages and let people enjoy them. PHP gets tore apart all year long, and 1 nice article comes out and everyone jumps on it like it's preaching Delphi or VBA.

PHP has continued to done wonders for me, I continue to write huge apps in it, I continue to love it. I've used every other language you wrote, and continue to this day to write in PHP. Not because I'm not able to grasp how good another language is. But because it works. If I need something I go to packagist and search, it's always there. If I need to deploy something, there is tons of ways, and even basic ones. I don't need no fancy deployment setup, but I can have a fancy deployment setup if I want.

But people are more then welcome to hate it, and every time a positive post comes out about PHP I will continue to post my statement and then carry on building stuff. As there is ALWAYS a negative comment.
