[OT] Re: Yahoo is moving to PHP ??

List,
    You are probably not the best people to ask for an answer which 
might advocate PHP,
    but.....
        Can someone who is more proficient in PHP than I (I have used it 
for 5 minutes) explain to me why it is quicker to prototype things in PHP?
        I can't understand this statement. Surely this is only 
applicable to people who are not proficient with mod_perl & [% 
my_templating_engine %]?
        Much of the code from PHP based websites which I have read has 
seemed to take this prototyping idea too much to heart. It looks more 
like an overly
        complex prototype than a well working application.

/me doesn't get it.

PHP blows.
