Superglobals
Since: 0.2
Accessing a super-global variable directly is considered a bad practice. These variables should be encapsulated in objects that are provided by a framework, for instance.
Example
class Foo {
public function bar() {
$name = $_POST['foo'];
}
}

StaticAccess
Since: 1.4.0
Static access causes unexchangeable dependencies to other classes and leads to hard to test code. Avoid using static access at all costs and instead inject dependencies through the constructor. The only case when static access is acceptable is when used for factory methods.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar()
{
Bar::baz();
}
}
