The hinting is almost secondary to the implicit documentation that a typed language brings.

Fuck Microsoft, I been using Windows all my life but if I could jump to any other operative system with games and software support I would do it in a heartbeat.

Actually that trick creates some residual garbage (the slash and the asterisk would be printed in PHP)

A way to avoid this is to use the HTML comment notation, JavaScript just ignores it (until end of line), so just:

    <!-- <?php echo "-->";

Conflict of interests is not a conspiracy... unless you believe stuff like Fox not covering Republican scandals is a conspiracy (its just Fox being Fox)

You were claiming "they could just as well package into, say, an install CD image" which is likely not going to happen, so he was just giving an example.

The perfect spam filter Gmail has its probably based on data and ML analysis, not a simple software you can put on a CD and install on some little server; so even if someone who works there wanted to help you they probably can't do it.

... But then you would have to count the bias against single founders and all the investments they didn't get thanks to that bias. And also count all the accelerators than discarded them for this issue.

Plus, there is also the "fake co-founder" tactic some people use in order to avoid this bias from others; so you would have to count those as well, but that data is not public. So yeah, I think you are trying to count the uncountable.
