This is a link post Nobody has told the bloke that his chosen career really isn't for him.
(or they have, and he hasn't listened).

This is a normal post The problem is that backend skills aren't frontend skills,
no matter how much those lines get blurred, and it looks like he needs to specialise more.

Tell the entire web industry, though.

This is a normal post I could do without the scripts, the glitchy gimmicks, I'd like my scroll wheel to work, and I like lower case g to be uncropped,
but it's not that bad visually. I much prefer 90s web design to the modern rubbish, mind you.

This is a normal post Yeah,
it looks a decent enough CV for a junior dev working in a team - web designers should pick up on the UX issues, and senior devs should help you improve with each job.

To be honest, I have no idea how someone starts out nowadays - it used to be a bit of HTML and you're off. Now, there's fuck loads more you need to understand.

This is a normal post Maybe, but that 'g' can still GTFO!

This is a normal post I would have said tail reversed is the right one before reading the article.

This is a normal post That's very interesting
I wouldn't have had a clue how to write a loop tail g, but looking at the 4 options in turn, only the correct one didn't make me feel a bit uneasy.
In the ensuing couple of minutes I have again completely forgotten how to write it!

This is a normal post My wife, who knows about these things, said
"It really was a terrible site"

I'm an amateur in this arena, having written many terrible websites. I also found it painful.

This is a normal post Don't want to link to all those pesky js libraries?
Slam them all into one and host it yourself.

Oh and the font...

This is a normal post That font is fine except for the satanic lower case g.

This is a normal post I tell you what, after moving my hosting and trying to patch together what remained of my site with old bits of string and selotape, I have nothing but admiration for all web designers, however crap they are.
