Not all recruiters are bad. If you know that you struggle to find what you want, or you struggle to bargain a good salary then they could well be worthwhile using.
It's certainly in their interest to get you the highest salary possible, as their commission payment will generally be based on a percentage of that. -
@Linux it is here, i know of 3 companies that dont just do legacy code or wordpress
-
@FelisPhasma i see a lot of java and python
-
@FelisPhasma if you mean echo("<html>..."), then this conversation is over
-
@ganjaman No... I mean you can very easily integrate php into your html. Something like:
<?php
# some starting logic
?>
<html>
<head>
<title><?=$somevar?></title>
</head>
<body>
<div id=“main”>
<?php
# some more stuff
?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I like that a lot more than storing my html page as a string in python and string formatting or whatever.
The one thing I don’t like as much about php is how form processing is done, but I’ve gotten used to it. -
@FelisPhasma yeah, okay, this conversation is over
-
@FelisPhasma but just in case you are a beginner
1) this is called templating, its done server side and nobody uses it cause it strains servers unnecessarily
2) any other language can do it, there are 958385 templating engines
3) 99% of new webapps is a js app, communicating with backend through json, and php is the last language id use for that since yes, as you said, its main purpose is templating -
@Linux understanding that sentence took me way more than it should have
Just had a talk with an actual good recruiter. I feel weird. Like he actually knew what he was talking about, knew that php is dead and only showed relevant jobs???
