Mark Pilgrim

January 13, 2003 by Michael Boyle

seems pissed today: Semantic obsolescence. “I bought into every argument the W3C made that keeping up with standards, validating, and using semantic markup now would somehow ‘future-proof’ my site and provide some mystical ‘forward compatibility’. How about some fucking payoff now? How about some fucking compatibility?”

I think I agree with him.
