Sustainability is a security issue. Consumers only have demands for a burnt out maintainer and the only help that arrives has long-term malicious intentions.
@Crell @webshinra @ramsey @asgrim I'm 20 years in on PHP too :) But also 9 years JavaScript/TS, 1 year Java and now learning Go, which I find very cool, not to mention all the languages I've learned as a hobby (I wrote Lua World of Warcraft plugins for example) and the ones I've already forgotten - looking at you, Delphi. Don't they me wrong, PHP has it's place. But we're very unlikely to start any new projects in it.
@ramsey @webshinra @Crell @asgrim Realistically one should learn more than one language.
@asgrim I think there was once a language called Ruby whose community had a history of doing that.
AI as it is built now will be dead in a decade, I think. It will be used to generate garbage for the web and it will learn from garbage on the web. Here you have your first "AI that can train itself", except any system with random changes and no good feedback loop it will just get worse and worse because random changes are rarely positive.

@girlonthenet All products marketed as "for men", "for boys", "for women" or "for girls" must specify en detail on the packaging what the risks are if they are accidentally used by the wrong gender.
@grmpyprogrammer Yup, it's useful for repetitive tasks.
@carnage4life I'm white and I've found it funny. Overcorrecting on actual racism is not racism, it's just silly.
@lcamtuf I've tried Rust and it made me want to try something else.
@xor If only we had a name for those that wasn't that :)
