Oh I was curious about that too. He's just gonna go for it, and if they sue he has a backup domain and logo ready to roll. I hope they don't scare him off with a fake lawyer email like this site has gotten.
Yeah not a bad plan I guess. Risky, but it instantly captures all the clout that that name carries. But it also comes with all the baggage, so good luck to him with that.
I think the from scratch thing is kinda silly though. We'll see how he does once it starts getting real traffic.
Yeah and PHP is an odd choice for a website in 2021. New designs always run in to scalability problems too. But escaping the licensing fees is probably nice. I'm curious to see what happens with it.

PHP is legit, it's the unsung unsexy hero of the internet. Some stats put it as high as running 80% of web sites. Facebook helped modernize it big time when they were using it. Maybe I'm biased, it's my day job language.

Ah wow. I've heard good things about it in terms of reliability and standardization, but I always regarded it like PASCAL which does what it does well, but is outdated. I didn't know it was still in such common use
