Via Sam Ruby I found this awesome presentation about the static analysis of PHP. This kind of action is happening more and more. PHP has some really good things about it, but it is also really rough around the edges. So when smart people take a deep look into the language, and its implementation, it is pretty exciting.

now I have all but given up on PHP (at the moment—I am anything but static) occasionally taking pot-shots from the sideline at what I consider to be silly or misleading statements. That being said, I still do see the beauty of PHP, and I may return to it once again.

Or my mad science project will be successful, and I will have created a wind-mill-destroying monstor!
