&gt;  What does it mean that a language has tons of questions on Stack Overflow?<p>That it&#x27;s used by script kiddies, passionless code monkeys and management types (tm) (I wouldn&#x27;t really know about the latter). The clueless copy pasta code is what hurt PHP&#x27;s reputation, I hear (but again, I wouldn&#x27;t know much about it except for the comments I read).
