That's not to say that new concepts or ideas aren't welcome, but rather that they really have to prove their worth beyond a reasonable doubt
Well said
However, it seemed that many users were quite hostile to new ideas. There was an attitude that people were guarding the one true language from corruption.
To me that is saying pretty much the same thing. Reminds me of...
If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.
Evidence, please?
Look at the conversation on try/catch.
It makes me madder than hell to think of such a horrible backward construct being added to Eu, if two simple calls would do.
Just to clarify, that was about "finally", not "try/catch", and of course is really just my personal opinion anyway
to use badly written unstable garbage, and get away with it.
Likewise, that was not necessarily about code you might write, but code you want to run, and as such was not meant to be a direct insult. It was an insult, but with no specific target, and intended to stress not a panacea.
Anyway, must get on with composing my thoughts on var_id(), brb.
