Ah enjoy your single thread. I’ll be there writing writing kick ass code in rust and wondering about important stuff like… err… who owns that fucking variable…
Thanks for sharing a modern php codebase. It makes me confident that giving it up and switching to Python was the right choice.
lol

Imagine going to the slowest and ugliest interpreted language there is and feeling superior about it.
Like, modern Python is basically what PHP was at its lowest point, PHP 4 (20 years ago).
No, it’s worse. PHP never had shit like virtual environments and a million different incompatible package managers.
Virtual environments are a great thing.
I’d argue that the concept of isolated environments is great. Python’s implementation… leaves something to be desired.
It’s still a bit hacky, even in Python 3. Tools like
uv
andpdm
exist in the gaps to smooth it out.That said, it’s something that the core community is actively working on and it’s not something users will face day to day.
I say this as someone who moved from PHP 3 to Python 2 to Ruby to PHP 6+ to Python 3 as their goto language over the years.
Mojo is what is keeping me vindicated that python was a good choice. That and it’s worked for every project I’ve ever used it for lol
But that’s small potatoes in the technologist game
