Yes, then they shouldn’t say it is “safe” because it isn’t. They should say “more safe”, or be more specific.

I don’t get the “take off your shoes” part. Is this a meme I have missed?

I am sorry others didn’t hear you. I saw your edit and I think it makes sense. I hope you feel better soon. Emotions are a wild ride. I know from experience.

I don’t think you are causing any problems by not posting a small description of the project.

Sounds like you just don’t want to, why not just say that?

How do I get out?!

You have ruined my assumptions of SQL coders. How dare you! /s /dramatic

It does and I use it and I love it.

But I now, thanks to this post, see I am weak. I must feel pain to feel alive! /s

Okay I’m confused. I thought we were talking about corrosion. What does your reply have to do with corrosion?

I never said anything about stopping work. But I do think if humanity can produce enough, we should work less relative to how much we can produce.

I thought of another good argument so I’m posting it here.

Saying that I can stop working anytime and eat dirt is not really selling me on your ideas.

Oh my bad. I did realize you’re one of the 12ish people that can do that. Can you imagine not having that ability and sympathize with people who don’t have that ability? If not, we don’t really have any common ground to stand on.

No one in particular. But I am coerced into working as are you.

The current way we coerce (by threatening starvation and homelessness) is not the only way to make people do things. I agree that free everything forever with sprinkles is probably not going to work or allow us to maintain our current quality of life (I too like pop-tarts medicine, and computers). It’s not a binary. There are options in between that can be used to motivate people to do even unpleasant things.

I think we coerce way to much and I think a lot of coercion that we do benefits only a few people and not the many.

You know you can get people to do this without threatening them with starvation and homelessness right?

Don’t run this command unless you want to delete all the files on your system and break Linux on your system.

I don’t get the top square. I thought PHP was for generating HTML, not for creating EXEs.

Maybe it does. Maybe it doesn’t. This is the first post I have seen pointing out a flaw in PHP on Reddit or Lemmy. If you ask me JavaScript gets it the worst out of all of the languages. I don’t see those guys whining.

What I will say is that the majority of PHP developers I interact with on this post has led me to believe that there is a number of PHP developers that take things way to personally that they really shouldn’t. Seriously you guys aren’t doing your language any favors. No one’s going to want to join the whine club.

Okay, even if I give you the unexpected behavior point. The readability problem remains. Switch statements or tables will work just fine and are easier to read.

To be clear, I am fine with single ternary operations. I think nested ternary operations are harder to read and follow.

Well, if you assume ternary operations work the same in PHP as in c and attempted to write the code demoed by this meme. You would end up with unexpected behavior. Maybe I should have said unexpected behavior instead of unsafe behavior.

There is usually a safer and more readable way to do what you want to do by chaining ternaries in most languages.

Your feelings are valid. I wonder though, would you put up this level of defense for posts making fun of arbitrary parts of non PHP languages?

You are not your favorite language. And I find most criticisms of most languages to be very valid. I don’t think the intent of OP is to insult all PHP programmers. It’s okay to like a language that has problems. All languages do.
