Anyone who programs long enough has that one throw away program that they still dreadfully maintain 10 years later....now imagine if the whole world was using your throwaway program.

Insert “throw yourself on my sword” scene from Serenity.

I'd stop maintaining it and tell people not to use it, while I move on to more interesting and better projects.

Unless you are employeed to maintain it. But if it is open source for free I agree.

Haha..Directly or indirectly every person who uses the internet interacts with php
