I think its relevant that PHP does object and classes in terrible backwards ways and, among other things, a singleton will necessarily be rather ugly in this context. Learning about singletons won't help anyone get a better understanding of other tools that exist. Learn Ruby or Python if you want to do web programming.

- jmathai 14y agoYou mixed up the references. But my point is that the argument is philosophical. And doesn't really matter. People are out building and shipping stuff in PHP, .NET, Ruby, Python, C and foobar. And it all works. And users don't care. If you believe all (heck most) PHP developers care that it's a fractal of bad design, then your view is way too narrow.
