Re: Go with PHP
#3I'm mostly interested if this is a tiny hobby project by someone who wanted a nice example to use in arguments.
Or an advert by someone involved with Laravel/Laracasts.
As the former it's quite effective.
The latter would be funny.

#4I was expecting something about Go.
Same, didn't see anything that was remotely Go other than a generic http handler written in PHP. The other part about handling 500,000 orders a month on a $6/host isn't very impressive. You can do orders of magnitude more with just PHP. You can do that in a minute with Go.

#5They’re not wrong… PHP7+ is blazing fast, has a huge library, gradual typing support, etc.
If starting a new project in the space where they all “compete”, I would choose PHP7 or PHP8 with Laravel or Symfony (or maybe even WordPress) over Rails, Django and probably over NodeJS.

That's quite misleading however

turns out "go" is also a verb.

Just made the same comment and deleted it seeing that you already stated it. Protecting against all of these is hard and no tech is going to automatically protect for all of this on its own. Such a weird statement to make that takes away from the message of the site entirely.
