Rasmus Lerdorf marks 25 years of PHP at phpday 2019 with a look at the highlights and lowlights of the language. He argues for upgrading PHP versions, covering performance, static analysis, zero-cost profiling and dead code elimination.
HN uses it as the primary source for PHP's origins as a templating system for C and for the story behind its inconsistent function design.

The original untrimmed video of this talk by GrUSP (Italian PHP events organizer) can be found here: [VIDEO]
This is tangential but this channel frustrates me to no end. They shamelessly rip other people's content, stripping their videos of author information, conference information etc, AND add their own title card so that it appears like they are the publishers of the video. Why is this acceptable! Anyway, here is the original source [1], that this time was NOT in their video description. [1] [VIDEO] And this is the last time I commented about this channel [2] [2] [LINK]
PHP certainly works just fine when used well, but what in particular makes it a great introductory language? (As for what's (arguably) wrong with it, have a look at this talk[1] by Rasmus Lerdorf about its creation. He intended it as a quick and dirty templating system for C programs. Because it was never designed to be a programming language, but somehow organically grew into one, it lacks (in the eyes of some) the elegance of a purposefully designed language.) [1] [VIDEO]
Rasmus Lerdorf has talked about it in other videos but this is one [VIDEO] Basically, groups of functions are consistent: string,array etc. Their parameter order was usually based on whatever the underlying C API was.
