You know that's very interesting and I'd like to know more about that because verification buy two or more steps is one of the most disabling experiences the web never needed. We were supposed to be done with passwords by now!
Many of us have spent careers and cannot lead another Revolution but there are people out there doing it get involved or start one there is no one coming to save us it's up to Humanity at large it always has been the web was not meant for net worth it was meant for Humanity. Us.

Thanks that makes me feel really good and I'm sure thousands of people maybe Millions around the world just as happy there was pushback there was constant pushback and there still is. It requires leadership it requires action it requires participation and education and time.
Much gratitude to all for helping me getting through two chapters and a paper that need off my desk ASAP regarding historical aspects of the web. It was my assistive technology, enabling a career of incredible happiness, friends collaboration which I can barely use anymore.

Heart goes out to you. It sucks and I wish to comfort you but I believe you're going to make it through and you're going to be better equipped as a result to advocate for yourself and the world against #prescribedharm may you find comfort, relief, some quality of life returned.

A fairly good list of what's required today but no mention of any of the actual design principles which for the record we have never met in any version of any language of any practice since the day the w3c began writing specs.
Roadmap to Master Web Development :
1. 📂 HTML & CSS
2. 📂 CSS Frameworks
3. 📂 JavaScript & DOM
4. 📂 React /Angular/Vue
5. 📂 Git & GitHub
6. 📂 Node JS & API
7. 📂 MongoDB
8. ✅ Build Projects
Start coding now!

I have to laugh because first of all I don't think that's accurate we can talk about that more at some time but have you ever had to work collaboratively in an International Group made up mostly of competitors? For a long time dominated by one and one browser alone?

Oh boy do I sympathize with you I'm so glad I never had to do it but I knew plenty of people who had to do it and still have to do it today

Your soup metaphor is close. @stevenpemberton the HTML WGchair in 2009 end of our Charter used the term 'monolithic lump' now lumpier and obfuscated both content, real semantics and the declarative model for actual semantic markup by domain in favor of apps AKA software not web.

Did not know that thank you Kevin. I created a mastodon account and have never used it as between Facebook and Twitter and ticking Time Bomb projects on my desk it's just been very difficult. The use of the rel attribute already implemented was logical and relationally semantic.
A huge problem was when HTML began to be supported in email such as provided by oh you know Microsoft it created nightmares and still does for people have to write HTML emails. Which still is done.

Again Banning would be a term I would not use nobody can stop you from doing it if you want Jeffrey zeldman came up with something called transitional design which included the use of tables as a container combined with emerging improvements in CSS at one time.

There were other specific problems until we began to see more work on accessibility additions to them. But folks including me who often made the claim tables weren't proposed for layout is untrue. But no one pixel GIFs, need for linearization, minimal nesting, evolving elements
Microformats were referred to as the lowercase semantic web which sought to use a quicker way than XML serialization for similar grouping of ideas. Anybody remember XFN, the extensible Friends Network. Implemented in WordPress fast revolve as extended to existing HTML attributes.

The Semantic Web as envisioned is alive and used in many cases when you are unaware of it meant to be domain specific lexical vocabularies we have them today. The semantics are human to machine readable ideally not about the presentation or function in a browser.

When most people talk about HTML as being semantic the assumed meaning is unclear but usually meant to convey it relates directly to the content so a block quote is a block of quote. The other is avoidance of presentational description. It's inaccurate but it's a convention

I think the meaning here is when you're using the word semantic web you mean descriptive and not presentational. There is also the uppercase semantic web uppercase as proposed is something very different lowercase also. I'll do post please correct me if incorrect or vague.
