Twenty years ago, I was obsessed with Japan's unique mobile network called PHS (personal handy-phone system).

It's been a long time since I lost interest in communications engineering, but it's strange that I'm still writing PHP.

Why wasn't personal handy-phone PHP? That's because Konosuke Matsushita, a legendary businessman who is revered in Japan, published a magazine called “PHP”, so he refrained from using it.

As we all know, PHP:Hypertext Preprocessor became popular in Japan around 2000, so reservations became meaningless. 😜

@zonuexe my surprise / amusement when I heard about the company / publisher / magazine the first time was very big. I think we even have some random magazine lying around at home in Germany right now 😅

@herndlm Surprisingly, Amazon sells an e-book of the first issue of Monthly PHP from 1947. https://amzn.asia/d/7hJpmci

@zonuexe nice! @faguo fyi. But since I mentioned it a while ago, you already put it in your list I believe 😊
