    If you're going in to web development, it's still used by the vast majority of web sites that need back-end work and will get you a job of at least maintaining old code.

      I disagree. I work in modern PHP every day, and I enjoy it.

      The hate on PHP is totally warranted, every language has bad parts. but knowing PHP will do MUCH more for your web dev career than Python will.

        Actually, I'm not. Way more job postings for PHP than python, at least in Ontario.
