The worst part about PHP is constantly hearing from its detractors, who are often people who haven’t used the language in many years. Haystack needle order, $, fractal of bad design, it just gets old.

The language isn’t perfect but I love working with it, these 8.1 and 8.2 improvements have really made it sweet.

My biggest gripe at the moment is the (very old) behavior of e.g. preg_match() and sort(). You’ve got a small handful of these common functions that operate on their input by reference/in place which is gross. A new version of these would be welcome.

There's less and less wrong with it as we go along, but seriously there's still so much crap... You could list so many other than preg_match

>sleep(int $seconds)

>returns zero on success.

>If the call was interrupted by a signal, sleep() returns a non-zero value. On Windows, this value will always be 192. On other platforms, the return value will be the number of seconds left to sleep.

I've used it for 2 years 2 years ago and I'm not at all interested in starting a project with it again

Wait, what's wrong with that?

Why 192? Why only on Windows?
