PHP is not recommended... wait, what? I can somehow understand the lowercase version / command, as in - we're phasing it out. Get it somewhere else. But giving the thumbs down to one of the most popular web dev languages out there is - I'm at a loss for words really.



It's just a generic "this is deprecated and will be removed, don't rely on it" message, not a comment on the language...


I reference that in my post: lowercase “php” would refer to the command. Uppercase “PHP” to the language.


But it is in such case a strong confirmation about how people are losing conscience of language (not a good thing to sacrifice, in terms of priority - it is very related to thought pollution), and awareness in general, and awareness, attention and quality as values. A progress towards "shallow as a new normal".
