Do any of you know PHP? If so, do you have any recommendations for learning it? I'm not new to programming or web development in general, but I started learning Node instead of older shit like LAMP.

Despite what the site may have you believe, it's free and doesn't require sign up.

>do you have any recommendations for learning it?
yes, don't.
You should try dyd instead. Much better alternative.

Don't. It's the third worst server side scripting language, with node.js and perl being first and second respectively

I'm learning it for security reasons, not for development. As in: if you want to learn about pen testing/hacking sites with PHP, you have to know PHP (unless you just want to be a skid who only knows basic RFI stuff).

Only for legal security stuff, of course.

PHP being terrible is bad only from a developer's or blue teamer's perspective. It's amazing from a red team perspective.

That's a meme I haven't seen in a long time.

I'm too old for keeping up with gen Z's memes so I'm reverting back to ancient ones.

That doesn't mean it isn't better than PHP.

I'll have to do my homework but I wonder how bad it really is security-wise. I did some challenges illustrating how badly a PHP script could be on this level (XSS, bad input filtering, etc) but those are obvious ones and I'm sure there is plenty of libs around to solve this, not to mention complete frameworks.

I don't know anything about how common exploits involve the php binary itself or if it is just a collection of bad practice / poorly thought API choices giving PHP its bad reputation

I got somewhat comfortable with PHP by maintaining and customizing our imageboard software. I also learned Python originally by maintaining and customizing a chatbot. If you already know a C-like language, picking up a project can be a good way to really dive in there. Of course I read some tutorials here and there, but mostly I used manual pages to learn the specific things I needed to do.
