Careful with reusing stuff from previous jobs unless you carefully negotiated to make sure you retain ownership over what you create.

Careful with reusing stuff from previous jobs unless you carefully negotiated to make sure you retain ownership over what you create.
- aupajo 19y agoTo me, semantic markup is about making reusable patterns of information that relate to the content. Can I harness that to my advantage in CSS? Of course. It's really no different than saying "I'm going to make every sidebar I ever make have a class called 'aside'." Is technique grounds for issues over ownership?
- cstejerean 19y agoTechnique is probably not an issue but "copying and pasting" work you've done for another client is likely problematic. Well, hopefully your clients aren't the kind that get litigious over these things but I still wouldn't go around telling everyone that I'm reusing work from previous jobs.
