RE: [PHP] Whacky increment/assignment logic with $foo++ vs ++$foo

I don't get why for you code style means effort, waste of time ... I bloody write code, how do you write a loop? The same as I do ... except I put ++i rather than i++ ... does it change ANYTHING? For you no, for me yes ... whre is the drama here? I cannot spot it, it's like saying: I don't know optimizations and for this reason I blame them ... any sense from a development point of view? Absolutely no, imho, 10 years over PHP I know this stuff, it's my code style ... zero problems, zero effort, zero waste of time ... maybe it could be for you ... but if you think ++$i , which is natural for me, is gonna take all that effort, well, ... I don't want to comment it ... It's just a flame now, you are acting like I am spending my life to micro optimize PHP which is simply a silly opinion of what I have said, I just code like that ... and I have never had problems. You neither? Good for you, I have something else to think about, cause micro optimizations are not something to think about for me, I just code like that ... maybe if I repeat again myself you'll get the point ... I just code like that, and until you'll prove my code is bad, which is not gonna happen since optimizations for you are a waste of time, I'll code like that. Have fun, I have wasted already too much time to taqlk about this silly stuff ...
