What is the problem of admitting PHP solves the problem of quickly deploying web sites?


Because it fundamentally destroys the current agenda within software development, that tools should be created for developer satisfaction, not customer satisfaction.


Am I the only one scratching their head at this argument in 2020? 15 years ago when shared hosting was more common I would buy it, but I just don't find myself wasting time on figuring deployments out in other languages/frameworks. By far the biggest time sink in that area is setting up continuous integration and monitoring/alerting systems, and those problems are exactly the same regardless of language.
