Things considered harmful

Read Original

The article responds to a viral post titled 'Laravel considered harmful' on r/php. It argues against the 'harmful' label, defending Laravel's positive impact on the PHP community and its success in building real-world software. The core discussion is about the programming community's tendency to blame tools that cause friction instead of engaging in self-reflection and re-evaluating assumptions about 'best practices'.
