Started working with PHP back in 2012, in the days of php 5.2 and indeed it has come a quite long way since then. I love the static type system and the active development that continues. Certainly will continue working with it, just love the language.

Thanks for an interesting and informative video. I have programmed in a number of languages. My preferred back end is C#, however also write and maintain PHP applications. I agree the language is much better than it used to be. Also, it is certainly a different feel than languages which need to be compiled, and agree with youn there. I like the language, but not sure I would want to use it on large projects just because I enjoy C# and it works very well and is also a fun language. Since this year when I started this side project in PHP, it had been more than 20 years since I last used PHP, im very impressed with how it's developed, and very glad they have addressed performance issue. Thanks for a great video :-)

He trabajado con PHP muchos años (10) y solo he trabajado con la versión 4 y 5, me falta probar la versión 8, siento que vivo en el pasado, pero me falta el empujon para empezar a realizar proyectos en php8, se que es muy grandeo la mejora pero tengo mi software en 5.6. Eso es lo que me tiene triste, que me toca reescribir mi proyeto desde cero a php8.

Hi Brent, Cheers.
You know that you're quite an inspiring & authoritative presence in PHP Community. So, I believe that if anyone can take my issue on, it would be you.
It is this: All other Languages, even novel and smaller ones than PHP, have functions for calculating Lunar Conjunction & Equinox dates and Times of any given month and year, respectively. Why does PHP not have those functions? And, can you help make the move? Please.

Saying that the long class with private fields and getters/setters is the EXACT same thing as a PHP 8 class with public readonly properties is very wrong .. I thnk I don't need to explain to you why, you already know

i started 10 years ago with php but after starting Java development 5 years ago, now PHP looks so so, so messy, its a copy of good things from many languages and lot of frameworks, but its messy, very messy.
the language needs lot of plugins to compete lets say with Java or Kotlin, i need to maintain a big codebase in php but bellieve me nowadays, Java can do in 10 lines what in PHP needs hours of configuration and classes, with things like Apache Kafka rising in use, or other mature Apache connectors, systems, PHP is a baby.
PHP is for the basic like pages, blogs, simple websystems, but for the enterprise go Java, Kotlin, GO.
