last saturday by comparing a Java Hello World to a PHP Hello World.
Just as a side note, what's the big difference here?
PHP:
<?= "Hello World!" ?>
<?php echo "Hello World!" ?>
JSP:
<%= "Hello World!" %>
<% out.println("Hello World!") %>
PHP has it's own identity which it should never lose. However, this
doesn't mean it should stick to the old trusted ways and ignore modern
developments in the programming world. To keep this identity PHP needs
to innovate and learn from recent innovations and programming
insights. It needs to keep evolving so it can keep its lead on the web
and please both beginning and experienced programmers alike.
And like Python 3, it should drop backwards compatibility in favor of innovation and
cleanup in my own humble opinion :)
