I've invested a lot of development time in PHP from 1999 to 2009 (at least), and I hate it.
It is not just the inconsistency in the runtime. It is not just the horrible language design. It is not just the incredible unreliable stability (although Node is seriously challenging PHP on this one). It is for a better part the continuation of these atrocities.
There is only 1 good thing about PHP, and that's how easy it is to enable in Apache HTTPd.
