Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a Base setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PHP spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PH presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough.

Some tech talks make you question reality itself. This guy's up there presenting "Building Mobile Apps With PHP" with the confidence of someone who's never encountered a modern framework. It's like watching someone enthusiastically explain how to commute to work on a horse and buggy in 2023. Every mobile developer in that audience is either having an existential crisis or frantically checking if they accidentally time-traveled back to 2009. The speaker probably follows this up with "And for optimal performance, we'll deploy to Blackberry first!"

The conference room is completely empty except for the world's loneliest table. Turns out when you're looking for universally beloved tech, you get PHP 6 (which never actually shipped), IPv5 (a failed experimental protocol that was skipped entirely), and Windows 9 (which Microsoft yeeted straight into the void). The joke writes itself: these "attendees" are either vaporware, skipped versions, or technologies so cursed they never saw the light of day. They can't be hated if they don't exist. *taps forehead* Meanwhile, every other technology is out there getting roasted daily on Twitter. JavaScript? Too many frameworks. Python? Slow as molasses. Rust? The evangelists won't shut up. But these three? Pure, untarnished, because they never had the chance to disappoint anyone.
