As someone that used PHP professionally for literal decades, the PHP hate is so meme-y.

Its biggest problem is that it allows you to do some truly cursed things. The same can be said about other languages, but PHP really doesn't do much to set you up for success, especially as a new-intermediate coder.

With opcache, it became fast enough for basically most web backends, and as a language overall it does seem to be evolving and shedding off some of the crap that used to make it truly horrible in the hands of a new person. At least the type-juggling stupiderrors

Now I mainly use go and python (only because I have to on this one), and I would put Python and PHP on a similar level of "fuck this language" moments

Only people supporting legacy regret.

Ruby was never good. It just got memed enough to make it way into some medium business

Have you been listening???

In Slovakia, gay adoption AND marriage was on a referendum, and weirdly enough, Francis threw his support because against it. To "preserve the family"

  1. "Let's think of the nuclear arms, of the possibility to annihilate in a few instants a very high number of human beings. Let's think also of genetic manipulation, of the manipulation of life, or of the gender theory, that does not recognize the order of creation."

So "kill a few million people with nukes" is the same as "gender theory"

  1. "The family is threatened by growing efforts on the part of some to redefine the very institution of marriage, by relativism, by the culture of the ephemeral, by a lack of openness to life."

God loves you but you ain't equal. Homosexuality is a sin, but not a crime. You are welcome in the Church, but you are also immoral and going to hell.

Sheesh, I was worrying a bit there. At least I'm not violating the laws of man.

except he did this as a reaction to Catholics leaving in a manner that is basically HEMORRHAGING numbers.

And you think someone with the Olympic-level of narcissism that Trump has put their real weight on there? That's really the point

This is REALLY not the case everywhere.

Toss in like 3 streaming services, which is pretty typical coverage for what most people want to watch, you are at cable costs.

And I dunno if you've been in an Uber lately in a larger city in the US, but literally in the last year we've gone from people driving nice clean modern cars, to people driving late 90s/early 00s hoopties that are dirty, stained, and don't have AC, smell like whatever thing was in there before, etc.

This is an interesting take considering vendors regularly do sell addons related to sms, blocking, etc

As someone that fits this bill perfectly, and considered tossing my hat in the ring, I kind of agree with this person.

While I may not agree with the phrasing and hostility, the point still stand that they are effectively looking for Senior Level + DevOps.

And 5 hours a week will turn into 30+ as the person or persons takes over ownership of the required pieces.

My main holdup is just having enough time personally.

I don't know how fair it is to use Cisco as an example for a GUI.
