Talked to long time friend a while back.
I think he freelances now and does some kind of web design stuff.

He said, he hates java, and I asked what he hates about it:

" Those stupid variable types, I only use VAR in PHP to get around that stupid stuff. And what is this Oop anyway?".

😵 Dude? The fuck?

php

    C# allows var.

    Many Stack Overflow answers contain "var".

    I hate var in languages that allow specifying types.

    Java has var in Java 9 too. It’s still strongly typed, it just automatically figures it out based on the return type of the RHS of the assignment.

    even in C++ there is auto now, which acts like var and is even recommended by Scott Meyers to use whenever possible because generally it is faster and safer than explicit type declarations😞
    but you should still know your types 😂

    @filthyranter ever tried Kotlin?
    Type Inference is actually pretty cool

    Last time I checked php is also object-oriented in terms of programming paradigms

    @Lahsen2016 Well, fuccboi ist aber harsh I think.

    @diomonogatari it is, had a short talk about that too, turns out, he actually uses polymorphism.
    He just didn't know what it is. He liked it 😁

    And thanks to everyone! My first rant with i > 25

    @filthyranter Var is to remove clutter
    var myvar = new SomeClass(); tells you everything you need to know. If you use a decent IDE it tells you the type anyway. I always use var when its type is obvious. It is also best practice according to Microsoft's C# coding conventions.

    @gnaaah Only in the cases @MrThompson mentioned. If there's a type you don't exactly know well then have fun finding it out
