haha. "comprehend". you mean "accept".
that metaphor is stretched to breaking point as far as i'm concerned.
one that i feel needs to stay ahead of the computing trend if it is to
be considered a language for large scale applications.
Personification of PHP doesn't make your argument any more salient. PHP
isn't trying to stay ahead of anything. People are using it to solve
problems, not to meet some phantom ideal of a "computing trend" threshold.
but you nay-sayers here have convinced me; i'll be shopping for
another language with which to serve my applications and the weboutput
they produce..
thanks for opening my eyes and telling to abandon ship in time.
Obviously we didn't open your eyes.
Well excuse me for not dumping 50-100k lines of my own cms code
instantly now that i realize that in order to scale it, i could really
use features like threading and shared memory.
Actually, you are th eone suggesting dumping your code since you said
you were jumping ship. Many of us suggested that your problems can
almost certainly be mitigated without threading.
Cheers,
Rob.
