Do not get a Comp Sci fag confused with an engineer fag.
Comp sci fags are generally retards. The field is 90% filled with people who were all "should I take business or computers? There's money in computers, i'll do comp sci!" and then they run out and buy their first PC, and ask people "what programming language should I learn?"
PHP gives newbies the advantage of instant gratification, and the techniques are compatible with going to C.
Learning C involves a month in the console making things that only they can see. Text based Tic Tac Toe. Inventory management. Press 1 to continue. How fun is that? You can go backwards from PHP to C, and many do.
The real "computer science" folk already hacked on their computer for so long that by the time they get to college, most of the shit in CS is boring -- why is it boring? Because the other 90% are bringing down the IQ of the classes, forcing the profs to cater to them, lest they lose their department.
People who want to know how to program FIGURE IT THE FUCK OUT because there are volumes and volumes written about it on the internet.
And php ugly? If you want ugly, compare PHP to ASP. ASP usually involves goat sacrifice to get anything to happen correctly.
