Yes you're correct in my opinion also from my experience just the other night a lot of the Latter-Day web Folk have no idea that the semantic web was the future as envisioned, XML languages are still alive and well and living or that apps could Thrive with declarative languages

Moreover one could be a programmer for the web but not involved in creating a DTD or schema or studying Linguistics which ironically looks a lot like algebra when sentences are broken up and defined.
Not for? The web is for everyone. Declarative language is make it more simple to understand where they freak out is the Cascade or they're lazy or the worst part no educational standard and no education at all usually

It largely doesn't hold because we have forgotten about core ideals as I recently presented and others have as well. Steven Pemberton former working group lead of the HTML and xhtml working groups before their Charter was canceled at w3c a very good one is called the 100 Year web
Recently I have said that denial is a sign of fear. Well I deny race classifications and I refuse to be counted in any US Census or answer any questions related to race gender ethnicity Etc why because doing so terrifies me. History tells thousands of Stories of the consequences.

My only retorted that is why would you ever want to put a web browser into a car and expected never to be hacked or malfunction and yet...

A minor aside Sally I never once mentioned white nor did I mention class as definitive of what I am defining as privilege. surely they play in as you yourself have pointed out so astutely. Thank you for expanding the conversation it's important.
Also it affects Diagnostics in mental health whatever mental health means. PTSD was not a woman's option in the USA in my time so it was either histrionic or borderline personality disorder when most do not meet core criteria and are given no physical or differential Diagnostics.

Because of what you say about women. Because I just lost my husband I was fired from the last job I had my mother was dying craziest she was I loved her I was depressed. a welfare check meant breaking into my house and surrounding a sleeping woman at gunpoint ready to shoot her.

Those are excellent points as well we all bring different stories to the table I don't know what it means to be white but I do know what it means to be a woman and I do know what it means to be severely depressed and wake up to 6 police in riot gear surrounding my bed. Why?

The violence I know would scare most coddled humans and this is one reason I'm afraid to write Memoirs as people have asked because it would be so fucking shocking to the mild-mannered and well- born. And that violence came at the hands of my own family and those they let take me

A new definition for privilege of any race in the United States would be a believes that the police are here to serve and protect, and the idea that anywhere is safe. For me and so many this is not a theory. my criminal record consists of two speeding tickets in 58 years of life.

As for truth-telling and no filter and living an authentic life out loud well you found her right here when I met the web especially I began an experiment in being myself no matter what. It's been a journey of extremes that would scare the crap out of most who prefer stability.

I do try to be safe which is why I walked away but I am also very aware that the idea of a safe place is non-existent. In fact that's trauma for me if somebody says you're in a safe place now I go into full c-ptsd

I realize that might seem like a very strange policy but even with a democratic federal government have a GOP governor and an attorney general that want Trump in office now. Add insult to injury and you can't do it if you are Mexican and possibly here without the right papers.

Of course that would be the normal thing to do. Living in Arizona is not normal have you ever lived here? This is such a racist and military police state. Fuck Joe Arpaio he got in trouble for racial profiling Etc and who pardoned him yes that's right Donald Trump don't call cops

I'm just confused at what is appropriate and what is not in a time of utter ignorance. I'm not made to not respond, no filters, little impulse control, all I can do is leave and feel wrong for acting out when this guy is preaching this crap wherever he goes. What's the best tact?
