haha php bad, kill yourself ๐ lolol ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐๐
If you're going to make these "If programming languages were X" jokes, at least be a little bit creative with them.
It's an old sharepic, they didn't make it.
PHP is a sturdy club. You aren't going to take over the world with it but you can reliably put a dent in something.
but like, wasn't facebook written in php and didn't it kind of take over, about as much as any programming whatzit ever has? (not saying that was a good thing, but yeah...)
Facebook has used Hack for a long time now, which is very different from PHP these days. It's entirely statically typed with a bunch of advanced features that PHP doesn't have.
Yahoo used a lot of PHP too, back when they were still very popular.
I mean, PHP is used on at least ~35% of sites (based on the number of sites that run WordPress), so PHP itself has already taken over the world :)
