I'm literally working on APIs for my company on python right now, while I develop something else in django for my personal project(s). I've worked for fortune 500 companies, and actually used minimal PHP on my own website as a hack for menu reuse.
It's a joke , you guys are taking it too seriously. The main idea is that compared to things like python, php is outdated. Yes, legacy systems exist, and are successful. But it was a punching bag for webdev hate for a long time, in a way that other things like perl, ruby , or python have not been.
Maybe regurgitating those jokes are not that funny. Alright. Doesn't mean that you need to try to bring my skills down and attack my professionalism.
