Description: A brief video about the web from Webbed Briefs

It’s been a long time! Glad to be back. In this episode, I ask a question that has never been asked before and has certainly not in any way caused a great number of arguments and nobody has ever been blocked or muted on social media for asking it. Bon appétit.

Help Ukraine defend itself.

These things take a solid frickin’ week to make so, if you’re able, support me on Open Collective or Liberapay.

For the first time in my life, I had an in-person encounter with a "Writing HTML and CSS is not programming" person. The devops engineer took it further: "scripting" apparently, is not programming either. I couldn't help but share @heydonworks with them. briefs.video/videos/is-html…

HTML a programming language and so is CSS. #html #css #webdev briefs.video/videos/is-html…

More about the problem of “Seeing Like a State” – designing from the top down and then being forced to make the territory fit the map. I also have a tendency to try to come up with Grand Unified Theories of Everything when I’m refactoring, although experience has taught me that if something doesn’t fit nicely into this box, it’s better to come up with two similar approaches that can reuse some code than to keep squishing it until I can make it fit. About the performance impact of repeated array_merge calls. I’ve been doing a lot of cron scripts with batch processing lately and this pattern seems to keep coming up. The variable-length argument operator means it’s only one extra line of code to build an array of arrays and then do one merge at the end of the loop – nice! The story of René Carmille, the French civil servant who may have been the world’s first ethical hacker. Carmille sabotaged punch card readers so that he couldn’t provide the list of French Jewish citizens that the Nazis asked him for, and helped to save thousands of lives. The full(er) story on French Wikipedia raises the age-old question about the ethics of using data for a different purpose than stated. I loved this whole CakePHP presentation on writing readable code by Rafael Dohms, but the section on Object Calisthenics has really captured mthe New Zealand dollar has fallen under 65 USc overnight and is 64.9 USc just before 8am. That’s near a two-year low.y imagination. Some of the suggested rules line up with how I usually code – like preferring early returns over if/else statements – but others are a bit more challenging. I tried “only one -> per line” for half an hour this week and it was hard work! I always get ten good laughs out of every Webbed Brief video and the latest “Is HTML A Programming Language?” is no exception. I’m not sure I agree with the conclusion though – if HTML is programming then so is editing a wikipedia page or using a formula in a spreadsheet. I guess like most things in life, there’s a spectrum of programming languaginess rather than a binary distinction.

This excellent piece from @heydonworks was a good way to end my day. HTML is a programming language, so is CSS. They tell computers to do stuff...if that isn't programming I don't know what is. briefs.video/videos/is-html…

YES

"HTML is not the kind of complex or impressive programming I, a person desperate to make claims of intelligence, could possibly lower myself to be associated with. Which is all the more embarrassing for you when the HTML you do write SUCKS SO MUCH ASS."

(From Jen Kramer )
also excellent for sharing in your company slack tech channel.

(From Arden )
Please take the time to watch this. #HTML gets a bad rep as “secondary” in any web development done, and therefore has been deprioritized. HTML requires training and time to understand fully, just like any other programming language :) #mondaythoughts #A11y

Come for the annihilation of gatekeepers, stay for the DJ Shadow background music

This is pretty rock solid. Also, if you need someone to do villain voice work, I think Heydon's voice is perfect for it.

Incredible as always from @heydonworks, and my favourite part is the almost ambiguous pronunciation of "no, you carrn't"
