I grew up coding in perl, changed to php over the years... I'm a much better programmer from age, but php is now far superior for web data programming anyway.
I do not follow the pack that is learning this OOP and Framework stuff though, i truly believe they are heading in the wrong direction. Its showing in a lot of the open source projects these days... just a bunch of crap, written by a bunch of wrongfully educated people.
However the language and salary averages you see is meaningless.. i know php coders that make 200k+ a year, and most companies utilize it because they can get entry level kids to code their crap cheap, and then keep the base income level down to fool the industry as a whole.. End result is they get what they pay for.. a lazy programmer that is all ego, and broken untested code that is spaghetti and impossible to read. I mean who the heck wants a daily headache for 40k a year when you can manage a mcdonalds with less hours and less stress for the same cash.
in 10 years the world will be moving backwards in technology and kinda screwed from the wrong ways they followed....
Microsoft is having this problem with its hired "genius Chinese coders" Sure they are smart as fuck, but practicality is where its at.. and all day long i am hearing these genius's saying to its coder base..."did we move in the wrong direction with this, i keep seeing you guys do that and this instead..." and the answer is yes...
