Yes.

This is why PHP got such a bad reputation. A lot of new developers where copy and pasting quick example code from stack overflow, or code from other new developers who only kind of knew what they were doing.

I don't think that's the only reason, lol.


What? SO launched in 2008 and PHP had a bad reputation prior to that.

You're right, prior to that it was random forums,


and the comment section in the php.net documentation.
