[Go Make Things] On old web things

​ My friend Sara Joy wrote an absolutely amazing article today. This bit in particular really speaks to me… Enjoy the power and beauty of PHP; or never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of PHP until your stack is completely jammed. But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at your old sites and recall in a way you can't grasp now, how much possibility lay before you and how simple and fast they were. JS is not as blazingly fast as you imagine. And also, as an older web developer, this… you too will get old—and when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young websites were light-weight, tech founders were noble and fonts used to be bigger. Go read Sara Joy's whole article. It's delightfully good! Cheers, Chris ​ Want to share this with others or read it later? View it in a browser.​ ​
