@hu_logic @rodhilton I mean… all of Facebook is PHP, it’s not really the language that’s the problem

@mattdkerr @rodhilton Facebook had to fork its own PHP, for many reasons, which then forced PHP-Actual to modernize and still be a thing in 2022.

My point being - I doubt that Facebook would still pick PHP/Hack if it was forced to "rewrite entire stack" today.

@hu_logic @rodhilton it’s still PHP, just like C# 7 is still C#

@mattdkerr @rodhilton Sorry to pick on PHP, but it's was the least appropriate, yet plausible, modern language I could come up with.

Normally I'd pick on COBOL but even Elon is not that stupid.

@hu_logic @rodhilton I think the fact that the non technical CEO thinks he could do it himself, or that an intern could do it, speaks for itself - regardless of language (but yes COBOL isn’t a web language AFAIK)
