False. I pointed out what the author clearly stipulates.

"I’m a sys admin NOOB. I am also teaching myself to code. This is my first 
time setting up this stack so there are probably going to be some 
bugs/security issues I conveniently side stepped just to get it to work."

"This is obviously not secure enough for a ‘production’ environment."

If that's what you want to model your deployment after, be my guest. I 
hardly think it's fallacious of me to suggest someone do otherwise.

I don't care a whit about what "the cool boys" are doing. What I care about 
is a production deployment that works efficiently and reliably and that is 
diagnosable when something doesn't work. Apache fails those criteria; nginx 
and lighttpd pass (in my opinion and the opinion of many other developers 
who have used these technologies for non-trivial web applications in 
production environments).

That's why I listed it as a bonus reason. Better than mssql and sqlite for 
a production deployment anyway, eh?
