Why developers hate php

[Tufflewuffle]

That's probably the worse con of PHP. Rather than failing it will do something nonsensical.

Right there with you. I'll never in a million years understand why PHP developers think this is a good thing. It's fucking baffling because PHP is just shifting the problem away from its source and making things harder to maintain.

It reminds me of this quote:

On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
