There are a lot of great responses (and counter responses) here already as to why PHP is a surprising choice, but primarily my objection is one of misapplication. PHP is a scripting language for fast creation of web sites. It grew organically and consequently has a lot of weird gotchas that make it easy to write in bugs. Its floating point is poor, which you would think would be a detriment in financial use. Want to get a web site up like right now, get some PHP. Want to run the largest Bitcoin exchange in the world, maybe not so much. |
