PHP has a reputation as a language that makes dead easy to write very ugly sphagetti code. As far as I learned a lot has chaned since last time I was using PHP - something like 5 years ago. Is there any good book or other resource which describes modern PHP with best practices, parts to avoid, etc?
I'd recommend this for modern PHP: http://www.nodebeginner.org/ It's a great intro on how to write sphagetti code with out losing face.

No kidding, I mean I put square wheels on my car and it works just fine on my catenary road. Automotive engineers should get out of their circular wheel ivory tower now and then and see how good it works in practice.

On a related note, I just downloaded a Fart-app and my iPhone 2G froze. I'm glad Apple is developing, but they should just abandon the consumer market.
Friendly reminder that we can't have anything involving PHP without: * complaints about features it has or has not * a reference to that "a fractal of bad design" article * how language x is better * sarcastic, ironic or post-ironic notes about the above * one guy pointing out we can't have anything involving PHP without the above
* before any of this happens, multiple comments whining about how it's about to happen.
Ruby 2.1.0 is out.
Aaaaaaand cue 250+ comments complaining about PHP, mostly centered around issues that were much bigger in 2009 than they are in 2014...
