Although it seems fun, there are real laws against doing that...

This does seem like a totally biased opinion. An Indian paper quoting studies regarding racial discrimination when apparently Indians are getting abused is bound to be partial.

I noticed in the article that PokerStars ensured screenshots were being blocked? How is this possible?

"In fact, that's a distinct advantage of mod_php. Everything is loaded and in memory when the request comes in. Throw APC on top of that and your code is also already compiled."

I would love it if someone cleared a very basic doubt of mine : If php is compiled, then what is the advantage of other programming languages? Wouldn't it be the same as anything else (except maybe considering the size of the language)? Is it just the optimization of the compiler then? And if so, would PHP compare the same to other loosely typed languages?

Wouldn't it be better to just use WikiBooks?
