The thing that matters is language consistency... A language with a pure clean vision of itself in which the programmer can guess at syntax because they understand the general syntax principles to which the language adheres. Nothing here says PHP has been fixed in this regard.

Python made the big leap and fixed some huge problems when it went to python 3 - yes it's migration approach was a total fail, but it further cleaned up what was and already clean and consistent language.

The only thing that would have really interested me in this post would have been to hear that PHP had been cleaned up into a consistent syntax, but that's not what this article says.

I don't shout at my kids, pretty much ever.

There's also no punishment, no time out, no naughty corner.

They rarely get in trouble with me either.

No punishment, just understanding and explanations.

If they do something that really bothers me I ask myself if I've have ever properly explained to them why that behavior isn't OK.

I once got very angry and shouted at one of my kids and shook my finger at him but it was all an act. He crossed the road without looking and I wanted after a lifetime of me not getting angry, to badly shock him, to really frighten him, to slam home the importance of looking when crossing the road.

So actually it doesn't make sense but some company benefits so it's locked in forever that way?

I tried to read this from my iPhone.

I had to fight some sort of pop-up multiple times till I gave up.

I did get to some page that were full of corporate speak.

I got the sense that there is an interesting concept in there but can't be bothered fighting to find it.

It’s a mistake if you believe that the government acts or should act in the interests of its citizens.

If however you think the governments purpose is to further the interests of corporations, then it’s the opposite of a mistake.

I've worked with a lot of dickheads.

My only regret in hindsight is not just ignoring them.

Things do move so quickly in the workplace that it won't be long till he or you is gone or some other circumstance comes up.

I don't think it's always in your interests to confront problem people. Just nod, pretend to listen then do whatever you want.

Pragmatism man, that's were it's at.

Just absorb it with a smile and put your head down and work and ensure everyone likes you.

In six months everything will have changed.

Also, read "The Prince" if the really want to know how to survive office politics.

Are you asking cause you are thinking of building a product around this idea?
