Godspeed Mr. Atwood. If you can succeed with your new venture the way you succeeded with Stackoverflow you will deserve some sort of award. There seems to be a bad language or bad framework stockholm syndrome out there. "If you just got to know PHP like I have you'd see it differently." "PHP is really doing what's best for me." "PHP really isn't that bad once you get used to it." Of course you could replace PHP with a lot of languages and still be accurate.
