A comment on The new PHP. Parent comment

Considering the fact that I can set up a development environment in docker using PHP with a makefile and it's built in webserver, I'd say you've missed the point of it. It's a great addition, and with Composer/Packagist (which does currently have an issue with replacement packages, that needs to be fixed) plus the new features in 5.5, I can comfortably say I like using PHP.

Also, I've really got to stop reading the comments on PHP threads here on HN. They're repetitive, pointless and negative to the point of blindness. I'll go back to building cool things in it (and Go and Ruby and lately C, because while each of those have their issues they all serve a purpose and do it well).

you mean where anyone can submit a package, and it's replacements will be taken into consideration globally?

Replace everyone's symfony security/auth module? what could possibly go wrong? :D
