@foone Eh. It pays the bills, and is putting the kids through college. But I'm teaching the team type hinting (I blame perl and damn Larry Wall for the strength of dynamic types that PHP copied in spirit), application of functional programming concepts, and that useful variable names does NOT mean your code is self documenting. Like one does.
