"So I request every one who is passionate about programming and wants a career in programming to keep away from the php language and community as much as possible." <-- keep away from php and focus on (which language)??
"And you will be so used to using this for every situation that you might be put off by lack of similar data structures in other languages" <-- http://php.net/manual/en/spl.datastructures.php
"and blocks you from seeing the value of using the right one for a particular situation." <-- technically, i do think that the average coder who works in javascript/php/ruby/php/(insert other script languages here) fails in using the proper datastructure for the problem
"and as long as the rotten core remains" <-- care to explain more on this ?? And while you are explaining that i would like to remind you that there are no perfect languages out there..
Python scales quite fine actually (Disqus and YouTube use it for a majority of core development). It's all about the tech behind the scenes (uWSGI, Tornado, Ngnix, memcache/redis, etc), not the language itself (just as it is with PHP). Try scaling PHP if only using Apache Prefork instead of mod worker + php-fpm or Ngnix + php-fpm and you'll see what I mean.
I have no problem with using either PHP or Python on a particular project, depending on what is involved. I wish PHP threads would show a bit more maturity/pragmatism on both sides of the aisle sometimes.
Well, so long as they don't fix the parsing of octal int literals that is okay. Loosing both of my favourite offhand complaints would be rather disappointing. ;)
"official PHP engine is switched to HHVM, it would catapult performance past Python and Ruby in pretty much all scenario" <-- official php performs faster than ruby/python anyway!!
