Came for the PHP bashing, was not disappointed. continues quietly making money with the language

Well, yes, a lot of people make tons of money, doing terrible things.

> As an alpha only. It's still much too unstable to be able to do anything serious with it. No, it's powerful today. I'm writing 'serious' code with it. Just don't write production code with it because your code will have to do a LOT of maintenance to keep up with HEAD.

Perhaps I should have been clearer: don't do anything serious with it if you have a deadline to meet.
