html used to be a markup language for describing documents.
now html is the gibberish output from some js build pipeline for wrapping 50 nested divs around some json values.
why i hate web dev now:
1. what used to to take 1-3 steps now takes 10-20. trade-offs are absolutely not worth it for 90% of cases.
2. web dev has become low value, highly saturated and competitive field thanks to learn2code and low barrier.
- dagw 3y agoweb dev has become low value, highly saturated Web dev has been the low value, low barrier, entry level programming job for decades. I got my first web dev job in the mid 90s and it was low value, entry level work even then, that is why they would hire a 17 year old with no experience. Yes there is Web dev work that is very advanced, and web devs doing stuff way beyond what most can do, but most web dev jobs in the world have never been that.
