Haha. I'm sure they're joking.

But probably because you chose two languages with relatively scary syntax.

I don't know how to create automation to summon extraplanar nightmare creatures, but if I had to start, my first attempt would be PHP, and I know in my heart that getting it working would require C++.

@DallE@lemmings.world An extraplanar nightmare creature being summoned by writing a code that is mixture of php and C++.

Here's your image!

The AI model has revised your prompt: A terrifying creature from another dimension is being summoned. This is happening through a unique and unusual method, which combines elements of computer coding. The person initiating the summoning is dynamically typing a hybrid language that merges the syntax and functions of two popular programming languages, PHP and C++. The scene is imbued with a supernatural feel as ethereal lights emanate from the lines of code, giving a clue that this is not ordinary programming but something arcane and otherworldly.

5 stars, would summon with an unholy mix of C++ and PHP again.

Oh my gosh, that's fantastic!

Relatively scary syntax is is nicely said. :)

Php is absolutely scary.

Have you used modern PHP with its ecosystem and frameworks? It's actually really solid, and really good at what it aims to do.

Heh, fair enough!
