- A fair chunk of phpsadness is still unfixed - e.g. https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=49664 where recursing too much producing a segfault is Not A Bug.
- PHP's release machines were compromised. Let's not worry who downloaded it. http://news.php.net/php.internals/77695
- PHP 6. There's no hope of making PHP work in Unicode, ever. It's like Python 3, except half way through, they went 'let's not even bother'.
- The rebuttal elsewhere on this thread points to the very problem in the PHP community:
>> PHP’s one unique operator is @ (actually borrowed from DOS), which silences errors.
> Yup. I find it very useful on the unlink() function which will raise an error if the file you're trying to delete doesn't exist.
That just demonstrates that unlink is broken! PHP's error handling is some horrible collection of C, C++ and just spamming stderr.
