One of the benefits of making websites accessible is that you learn in the process how to actually use HTML.

One of the benefits of making websites accessible is that you learn in the process how to actually use HTML.

Clean HTML is generally accessible HTML.

Web developers generally need to go out of their way to fuck that up and yet they still manage to do it. almost. every. single. time.

Reasons tend to range incompetence to malevolence but it’s actually not that hard and literally millions of people will be grateful for it.

Developers really should try harder at learning their craft.

Things that happen in Silicon Valley and also the Soviet Union:

– waiting years to receive a car you ordered, to find that it’s of poor workmanship and quality

– promises of colonizing the solar system while you toil in drudgery day in, day out

– living five adults to a two room apartment

– being told you are constructing utopia while the system crumbles around you

– ‘totally not illegal taxi’ taxis by private citizens moonlighting to make ends meet

– everything slaved to the needs of the military-industrial complex

– mandatory workplace political education

– productivity largely falsified to satisfy appearance of sponsoring elites

– deviation from mainstream narrative carries heavy social and political consequences

– networked computers exist but they’re really bad

– Henry Kissinger visits sometimes for some reason

– elite power struggles result in massive collateral damage, sometimes purges

– failures are bizarrely upheld as triumphs

– otherwise extremely intelligent people just turning the crank because it’s the only way to get ahead

– the plight of the working class is discussed mainly by people who do no work

– the United States as a whole is depicted as evil by default

– the currency most people are talking about is fake and worthless

– the economy is centrally planned, using opaque algorithms not fully understood by their users

This is a very controversial article for front end developers.

This is a very controversial article for front end developers. If you are an advocate of single page applications (SPAs) it should make you challenge your assumptions.

Even though this piece advocates for a particular backend framework, the front-end JavaScript toolkits that are talked about will work with any backend.

Client-server architectures are like a pendulum swinging back and forth with more emphasis given to one than the other according to the fashion cycle. Web architectures are no different and right now we are approaching peak SPA. Expect arguments like the ones in this article to get louder in coming years.
