It's too bad that standard hacker slang for "I am incredibly disappointed and feel like kicking something today" is so similar to linkbait. But, really, what is one supposed to say when one discovers this:

$this cannot be used in lambdas or closures. So, when it comes to using these new features with objects, they're quite nearly completely useless.

... except "This is bullshit?" I mean, that's the censored version of what I think about this.

Exactly! I'm not interested in link bait. I'm just really depressed after I finally made the realization--just last night--that the language I've been using for years is going nowhere but down.

It looks to me that the only thing going down is you, as a programmer. You've been writing PHP scripts all your life, I understand why you are depressed.

I'm tired of Calacanis too.... please pull a Scoble and say "x will kill x-1"
