Gotcha, so it appears to be moving faster, but relative to its point of reference it is not. I am wondering tho, what laws of physics state that there just is _no way_ of moving faster than light? Apologies for the lack of knowledge, I genuinely don't understand / know where this limitation is coming from.

So does this mean speed faster than light is possible?

Well, many of the Python fans are fresh graduates. They have been taught python because it's an easy language - no proper classes, little use of design patterns, coding standards and so on. The reality is PHP is still a thing, and will be a thing for a long long time. There is a package for anything you need in composer, and unlike most python libs, these have been tried and tested in production far longer.

There are many fresh graduates coming out of uni thinking Python is the next big thing. But once they realise companies don't want to invest in re-inventing the wheel, they will one way or another have to learn some PHP.
