JS is NOT a big contender for PHP, because it isn't the functional equivalent of the double-clawed hammer.

The unwashed masses gravitate to PHP because it is very easy to get something running and imposes almost no restrictions on the developer. Thus, we get nightmares like phpBB and vBulletin.

I've seen disorganized large systems like this before - In the one case I'm thinking of, the root cause was that upper level management had no concerns about consistency or a unified architecture, and let each app team deliver what the team wanted without much in the way of group collaboration. This smells like a similar scenario.

Comment Palm Zire, iPod Photo, Stereo Stuff (Score 1) 702

The Palm runs a time logger that I've used to track my work hours since 2003. The thing has outlasted at least a couple of Apple notebooks that it synched to. The iPod Photo I bought in October of 2004 still uses it's original battery. And then there's the musical stuff - A set of Adcom audio separates talking to a pair of Magnepans bought in the late '80s. The Maggies were reconditioned in the mid '90s. That set up still sounds great.

"I can't remember where I heard this, but someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you're saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it's not literally illegal to express."
