Dont Bully the Writer Unnecessarily Use your brain before implementing any technology .

Do appreciate the writter at least they are trying .

Now Considering the article

I have 10 Y Experience in Django and Laravel

Speed of Development of Python is far better than PHP (Try Django )

Django has a Great architecture

A/c to benchmark

Speed is almost same for some part python was better .

Python and PHP both have great community support

Python has large packages .

3rd Party integration and dependency management in python is better .

For Security i dont have idea

"Speed is almost same for some part python was better" tell that to any experienced senior engineer, and you'll be fired! Because it's a BIG LIE! PHP is in orders of magnitude faster than Python.

Brother , Most Python library are ported from same c and c++ code so most of the time there are solutions that compile back to same assembly as c and now the python work faster than anything you know in php . For Proofs you can send me mail i will share you the benchmarks for our organization tested results.

Nobody can fire you unless you are an idiot

WTF are you talking about?! I've been working with both languages for more then 10 years. Have you ever heard about PHP OpCache? php.net/manual/en/book.opcache.php
"python work faster than anything you know in php" never witnessed so blatantly lie! Are you living in some parallel universe?
hackr.io/blog/python-vs-php check the speed comparison section.

The code compilation process affects the performance and speed of these two programming languages. A just-in-time compiler converts the Python development code into bytecode, each time a file is created or modified. So the Python files need not be recompiled again in future. The Python interpreter can easily access and fetch the precompiled bytecode (.pyc files). The code compilation process makes Python faster than PHP.
