Closures - great for Javascript, but for PHP? In a non-callback-centric synchronous language such as PHP, what else can we use this "syntactic sugar" for? How are people using them and what can we gain from them? And, the hell with code reuse?
Late static binding - perhaps not as glamorous as the others, but begs the question - are things going static? In combination with closures, namespaces, and considering that some of the most popular PHP applications/frameworks today are largely non-OO, is strict OO going the way of register_globals?
Uhm, for the ones like me who have no clue what this means, any pointers available that explain closures and late static binding in laymen terms? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
