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.

I think technology is not a destroyer or Creator. It's humans. Will we destroy or create everything yes we will and do
It was pretty clear to me that there might have been a double entendre any limes Free Speech commentary meaning exactly that. If he does it I don't think he's going to find a very happy ending to this story at all.

It's not mandated but it would be the honorable thing to do in an open-source environment especially ;-)

Oh boy anybody here listen to any of the lectures, tops and interviews you can find on YouTube or are familiar otherwise with dr. Robert sapolsky of Stanford University? He is a neuroscientist, primatologist, neuroendocrinologist, and honorary neurosurgeon well worth a listen no.

I think the point is it's not meant to make sense. People are struggling with CSS bored with HTML don't want to learn JavaScript but Frameworks are fine? They don't know what they're doing and they don't care about the web. Or they're made to do it in order to keep a job. Shame.

I want to see if a Tesla can be piggybacked onto a Twitter rocket launched into outer space using Advanced robotics as the intelligence. If that doesn't happen then I might consider leaving ;-)
