Please let PHP die.



In a real world PHP is more alive than most of other web languages. Our salaries are paid by businessmen and they don't give a shit how it works as long as it works.


PHP is not dying.


This is how PHP dies. You end up with 100 frameworks, and it's impossible to hire anyone who has experience with the framework you are using.


Any developer worth his weight should be able to adapt to any framework written in the language he knows.

If you know PHP/Ruby/Python/etc, you should be able to pickup a new framework within a day or two.
