Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
It doesn’t matter what’s posted here, I’m always ready to rage about PHP. The community’s image always gets me.
PHP Developer here: Give me your worst!
Tomorrow you're going to be inheriting our in-house framework that uses legacy code from before PHP 7.0 with zero documentation and no dependency management.
You just described my previous job 😞😭😞
Sounds good to me.
Had another job where my task was to maintain Perl scripts from the 90s. The company was crap, though, so I only stayed for half a year.
Maintaining perl scripts from the 90s is my ball park!
Mind, I did write some of them, and they're still whirring away making it a pretty easy job. Perl's lack of breaking features is its strongest strength.
I have a Laravel app I've been maintaining for about ten years that will make you hate PHP as well.
Bold of you to assume I don't hate PHP already.
