Google Cloud Ships PHP with iPhone Energy

Description

A dark-mode Twitter screenshot shows Google Cloud Tech, @GoogleCloudTech, posting about PHP support in Google Cloud Functions. The visible tweet text reads: "Today we're bringing support for PHP, a popular general-purpose programming language, to Cloud Functions. With the Functions Framework for PHP, learn how you can write idiomatic PHP functions to build business-critical applications & integration layers ↓" Beneath it is a preview card with puzzle-piece artwork, a phone-like sketch in the center, and the text "Introducing PHP on Cloud Functions" plus "cloud.google.com." The meme context points at the oddity of a Google Cloud promo using an iPhone-like illustration while announcing serverless PHP, mixing enterprise cloud messaging with product-art weirdness.

  It is good for its tasks. The huge amount of websites are written on php, yeah, beside of web it s useless, but in web it's a very strong player. Canada is full of vacancies for php devs, for example

  It has object oriented programming, a lot of cool functions, simple at learning. Php has given birth to many stereotypes about itself and has been destroying them quickly. With the time it grew in a separated language and borrowed a lot of stuff from C/C++ . I am not a fan of it but knew guys that simply worship php for it's simplicity and ordering a good vacancy in it
