THE WEB AS WE KNOW IT IS IN DANGER…
•Native apps on monolithic, closed systems
•Browser dependencies •Government control and
lockout •Corporate lockout •Walled content gardens

…nothing but advertising. And we don’t even do it for money. We do it for likes. We do it for GitHub stars and we do it for hacker news and reddit upvotes. That’s dumb.

EXCELLENCE THROUGH REPETITION?

When I feel like a fraud, I just needle myself on to do better.“

OUR JOBS ARE NEVER BORING AND THERE IS SO MUCH TO DO!

A LOT OF WHAT WE HAVE TO USE HURTS ME AS A WEB DEVELOPER…
![Page 44: Welcome to planet Fintlewoodlewix - SmashingConf Oxford 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062313/55a5bc231a28abe3438b45bc/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

A LOT HAS TO DO WITH OUTDATED SYSTEMS NOT GETTING UPGRADED.

BY FAR THE #1 REASON I GOT FROM WEB DEVELOPERS NOT EMBRACING HTML5:
WE NEED TO SUPPORT INTERNET EXPLORER!

Feeling like a fraud keeps you humble, it keeps you sane, it keeps you on your toes.
