  • In my experience, and in the experience of my coworkers/contemporaries, our formal education taught us how to program which is distinct from which language we program in. For instance, my Java dev friend learned to program in C++ because that’s what was being instructed. I was forced to learn ActionScript 2 and then was forced to migrate to ActionScript 3, because that’s what was being taught. The experience of programming something and iterating on it was far more valuable than knowing a language like C++ or ActionScript.

    Languages come and go, some faster than others, and you’ll eventually get to a point where your personal preferences stop mattering as much as which language is best for the task at hand.

    PHP is dead. Long live PHP.
