What: "PHP is like an old person with cancer. Yes, the fact that the person is bedridden and needs chemotherapy and has trouble getting around town and can't use an iPad is a problem. But the _real_ problem is that they are just *OLD*. PHP grew up in a time BEFORE CSS. Ponder what the web was like before CSS. PHP grew up in a different era that had a different set of problems, and no amount of slapping some lambda syntax on there is going to get rid of the baggage of the problems it was built to solve for a fifteen-year-old web."
