Development Happiness

One thing I really feel about myself is that I am a cheater; and a really good cheater. But the good thing is I do not cheat everyone. As the matter of fact I cheat only one person. And that person is none other then Sir Fahd. I do not feel ashamed because of two reasons. First I think there is no harm in cheating your ideals. If you want to build yourself, your thoughts, and your career then doing what they do and thinking what they think is not a bad thing. Secondly every student or every good student I should say is a cheater of his teacher. The blogging I do is mainly dependent on what I read from Sir Fahd’s blog especially when he talks about computers.
Few days back I read Sir Fahd talking about development pleasures. He said one sentence that is bothering me ever since I read it. That was “Happiness is a key to success and PHP is giving the developers that happiness”. Although technically I can’t speak about PHP much because I am on the far end of world i.e. ASP.Net. I am really having been in amazement what Microsoft has done with ASP in the form ASP.Net. Why there are two or three things where one can suffice. Just to confuse you? I don’t know anybody else but that really confuses me. There are two or three or even more ways to do a thing and more worst is that you need all of them. I really appreciate PHP especially the why it handles the HTML controls. I wonder why the people here in Pakistan are so unaware of the powers of PHP. Back to the Sir Fahd’s sentence. Well I can read between lines what it likes to be of being a web developer in PHP. At least there will be no drag and drop and no “Next” button. I really hope that some day I will get the chance to work on PHP. I am already in love with first love of Sir Fahd (Oracle); will it be the case with me again for PHP. I am afraid it will because it has already started.
