replyThe thing with government stuff is that no one is held accountable. Even people “fired” from doing a lousy job in a place will just be transfered to another department or another government agency. No one really gets fired fired.

replyWhy is phpMyAdmin even still needed/wanted in 2026? It's not exactly user friendly for a developer, let alone an average Gov employee...
Knowing the govt sector, the developers probably got hired 20 years ago and enjoy their stable, chill, even if a bit low pay job. No need to do CV-Driven Development and chase any new trend if the site's running and they're not looking for a new position...

Yeah, PHP bashing should be highkey.
