PHP/MySQL one of the best combinations for any website!

PHP is bad because... * Encourages mixing of code, layout and content * It has an object system but no-one uses it * It has all the security problems given in the "study in scarlet" doc MySQL is bad because... * It encourages use of lots of non-standard SQL extensions * It doesn't crash neatly (full disks are sometimes fun) * Its performance for non-trivial operations is often suboptimal Why do I fell like dropping chaff now?
