the programming language slash runtime environment for half the internet has apparently shipped with a big bad booboo such that anybody anywhere can just sashay up and hack the computer it's running on, and it has been sitting in this state for 14 years and nobody has noticed until now

note that this incident is completely distinct from a different one where a certificate authority in india fucked up the private keys on their signing certificates such that anybody anywhere can fake up such a certificate and start signing shit (and nobody noticed until now)

the first and last time i wrote production code in php was probably around 2001 but i have been the designated dick pill spam malware remover since because nobody else had the chops to do it (which is both ironic and total shit)

No, my point was you certainly use services that do. Your data is sat on servers that do. You don’t have to use php yourself to be vulnerable.

and my point was it's on the people who run those services to patch them while i lounged in bed this morning

by "enjoying" i mean lounging in bed instead of wigging tf out
