My entire life I thought PHP stood for "pretty happy programmers" but it turns out it stands for "personal home page" Last night when I searched in quotes "Pretty happy programmers" google gave me NO results, but today when I do it I now have a bunch of results. I think I have broken out of one mandellu effect reality into another!

Is PHP that good? Why does it have so bad reputation? Reference: 2022/08/17(Wed) 23:55:51

Why does it have so bad reputation? The general opinion is that it was a very popular and initially not very good language that was easy to get poorly-written and half-assed code kinda/sorta working, leading to a lot of n00bs and amateur program- mers putting out a lot of bad code/advice/resources that never got checked or replaced, leading to a lot of serious vulnerabilities and problems across the web, leading to a bad reputation (;´Д`) A lot of this is said to have been solved over the years, particularly with PHP7, but there's still a lot of sites using old and slow versions of PHP and amateur code written a decade or two ago... あ。(;ﾟ∇ﾟ) Reference: 2022/08/18(Thu) 12:34:40

I saw 8.1 came out. Should I use it if I decide to develop my BBS with PHP? Reference: 2022/08/18(Thu) 13:15:46
