I love PHP so I can relate. They said the same thing about Ruby and PHP, just saying. On a deeper level, I like JavaScript, it basically pays my bills these days, but I still think It's not going to be as mainstream as some people think on the backend: sure it will grow, but it doesn't have the amount of packages and ease of development PHP has and it doesn't compare in terms of integration and speed with Java and C# yet and maybe it will never do. It will just coexist with the others
