On: I still love PHP and JavaScript

How does that impact the code you can write?

I often get called in to fix things which are horribly broken.

That's a funny way of spelling job security

[zanethomas → eggsmediumrare]

Hahaha

I'm freelance (aka ronin) and so the job security is actually a bit spotty. :)

Ouch that is the worst. Called in to a great big mess. I hope by the time you get called in they realize they need to invest in some clean up time.

[zanethomas → xupybd]

"They" have usually been very grateful to have the disaster mopped up.

job security in software development isn't a problem especially since the pandemic started, if you're working on crappy code its because you're choosing to at this point

[zanethomas → redml]

You know nothing about the choices I make and your condescending manner is rather insulting.

I've been a paid programmer for over 40 years. When some code has seriously gone off the rails I can help.
