The answer is no because it wouldn't have been possible programming is not a new thing however if you want to be programming now it's a great place to start.

Learning is a lifelong ability unless we are in a cognitive decline of some sort or a political or personal situation where we are not allowed to be educated. It is a great joy to learn everything we can for as long as we can in my opinion and experience!

It doesn't make them lexical a semantic it's still semantics Christian it's just an expanded Fury beyond what people think of when they apply the term semantics to the World Wide Web at all. Linguistics and semantics are very complex, theoretical, definitively at odds at times.

Tim berners-lee created the world wide web. I personally had nothing to do with its creation! I have been an independent supporter of the web and it's foundational concepts. my role is advocacy, speaking, education and thank you so much I truly appreciate your kindness 馃槉

The only competitor that helps me grow is myself. You have built yourself into one of the most expressive podcasters depth in the charity with optimism and kindness that exist. Who is it other than yourself with whom you are competing?

Thank you so much I believe that it is the first step not the last one or the one we forget to access and accessibility means availability and if our engineering projects are not available to everyone no matter the reason there's not going to be an experience!

Yes all tags are semantics technically speaking in terms of semantic theories of which there are many

I would refine that statement just to change the term internet to web. But I agree if it was ever open and embracing of the many over the few or one that was before social media another is that we still have the capacity to make it that way in a dominant fashion we just haven't

When we talk about semantic HTML let's be clear it is a new branch of semantics that includes other semantic theories and that its role is to convey content to adaptive technology first and then to humans after it has been interpreted. Thank you for reading along! #100DaysOfCode

So what is really important about what we call semantic HTML? It really boils down to accessibility. By describing to a user agent not the presentation but the definition of a given element that elements now becomes easy to convey in all kinds of different meaningful ways.

What's more those meanings weather semantic or presentational has far less to do about what we think meaning is but what the user agent does with that content. We can argue that HTML is not semantic when presentational but that would not align to certain theories within the field

We claim the strong elements is semantic because it has meaning. So that would imply the B element has no meaning. Both have meaning! Just different meaning. Semantic markup isn't defining our ideation rather the significance or presentation of content.

What more should be said about this and it's a discussion we don't have a lot. Semantics is thought of by most people as the study of meaning of language. Semantics also includes semiotics and pragmatics but we are not giving this backgrounds when we study language for the web.

Earlier I made a comment as to the problem with the term HTML semantics claiming that none presentational elements would make the term redundant. I also posited elements such as div and span which are considered non- semantics my are in fact semantics in the sense of meaningful.

LOL good point. I have absolutely no interest in net worth. I have a different philosophy about what makes success value power and it has nothing to do with the things that people in the USA especially tend to Define them as being.

I'm looking at the names on this list and finding myself in an absolute off how staggeringly accomplished and unique every single one of us here is and how much intelligence, strength and Drive exist in this group. Imagine if it were to be combined toward a common goal?

Thank you so much. I took a long time to figure out that life is not measured by physicians ideas of longevity statistics. Also I'd rather fall down dead doing what I love with the exception of the fact that I don't want to traumatize anybody in the process LOL so onward we go!
Well there was this man named Rene Descartes. He made an error by listening to his personal demon. saw the physical body too filthy to communicate with God. And so the mind-body problem was born when there was no problem. Now people are dying from this no problem problem.
