What are you talking about? Troll bait much. Majority of IT practitioners have really bad knowledge about history of IT & computer science. Most things are in popular use solely because they are popular (which may give legitimate non-technical benefits).
Especially in software long-solved mistakes are done again and again, only because there are often stronger incentives (economical, bragging rights) to create something pseudo-new instead of doing it right. The knowledge of the elder sages is too often ignored (e.g. Fred Brooks, Alan Kay, Donald Knuth, many more...). That is a reason for why everything is so incredibly bad. Popularity is not a useful way to measure the quality of something. If your requirement for a programming language of choice is popularity, then pick PHP. If your requirement for a programming language is expressiveness and flexibility, then you might like PicoLisp. If you are unsure about your choices, feel free to ask meaningful questions, we're willing to teach & learn from others. But please don't disturb our zen calm with whiny passive aggressive bullshit, thank you.
