I have noticed that C/C++ developers that deal with backend server technologies are very much likely to resort to PHP for some reason. I have noticed it from serveral developer friends of mine or simply by noticing how the topic comes along sometimes on web discussion forums.

I believe this is the reason why certain extension codebases that deal with php are(for the most part) exclusively done in C++, take Phalcon, written as an extension in C or PHP Swoole, which is written in cpp iirc.

I wonder what attributes does the language, or the tech stack as a whole has that would make this particular kind of developers feel attracted to the platform. Is it that is easy and widely available and they just say "fuck it, I don't wanna spend too much time in this shit" <--- which is a very valid point really.

Or them just having an innate preference towards it?

The Psychology Behind Developers: By Dr AleCx04

do you have an innate instinct to respect authority or those with status?

where does it come from? how does it feel? how do you experience it?

The product owner, cum our solutions architect is dumb.
It takes him ages to explain one shit.
Also, he is an expert on triggering useless chaos and panic, thanks to his innate abilities to misinterpret shit.
He thinks everything should happen at 3×10^8 m/s.

I've always thought about it, knowing to program is innate. I've seen a lot of people with motivation but struggling to understand the logic behid. On the other hand for the good programmers this understanding comes naturally, like as if their brains already worked that way.

why do people want to post controversial / inflammatory things

I remember some users here like to aspire to that. I'm naturally inflammatory, like to such a degree people get aggressive. so what benefits am I getting that I'm not aware of because I have this natural innate ability. why would you aspire for this quality?

Sometimes I trigger this innate desire to learn a language, just so that I be able to talk to the people I adore in their first language.

It's finally annoyed me enough, I gotta ask...

Am I the only one getting annoyed at procedurals (the shows about crimes) and their accuracy irl, at least when it comes to timelines and alibis that are deemed as 100% uneditable fact... based on metadata and system log files???

Or is this another case of me assuming other humans must realise things i see as simple, should be common, sense?

If it's the latter... ANY system can be modded, timestamps have sooooo many ways of being altered from multiple angles, a few lines of code in an apk file on a dev mode device can make your gps show as anywhere in the world...

even a basic early 2000s runescape bot creator should know the basic methodology of this... and even OS-innate output of event logs can be set up to effortlessly mod themselves to selectively delete or rewrite upon the system's command to show them.

For anyone thinking im FoS/this isnt a simple concept of reality... or simply never considered the reality of how much less work it'd be to just commit whatever crime that high intellect people plan meticulously for years, often still getting caught... including via their own, or easily hacked timestamps/lack of alibi...

Wanna blow your mind?
...
If you remove all hdds/ssds and even all RAM, any external devices of any kind, cut off all networking, then put brand new, all 0s, storage and RAM in... then only connect directly to a totally direct connection to WAN (aka the internet via ISP... and your ISP has no malware etc)...

Without browsing anything, and a totally fresh, safe, OS newly installed to 0'd new ROM... no one actively finding/targeting you...

Can you already be infected with spyware/viruses/malware/etc?

YUP!

how? Someone who knows what dev u use and concise coding and drivers in binary... they rewrite your bios to turn on basic components, no fans/lights/etc... bios has the clock, u can be asleep, see/hear nothing while bios boots up totally dark, runs a cimmand to pull all the malware to u... youd be oblivious
