THE WHEEL IS SPINNING, BUT THE HAMSTER IS DEAD…
CHRIS HEILMANN (﴾@CODEPO8)﴿, SMARTWEB, BUCHAREST, SEPTEMBER 2015
I assume that after a full day of great talks and meeting people who work in the same space as you,
THINGS ARE GREAT!
WE EXPECT EVERYBODY TO GET PURE HAPPINESS FROM CODING…

FIZZING WITH THE BUZZ…
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FizzBuzzTest
The "Fizz-‐Buzz test" is an interview question designed to help filter out the 99.5% of programming job candidates who can't seem to program their way out of a wet paper bag.
"Write a program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100. But for multiples of three print “Fizz” instead of the number and for the multiples of five print “Buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “FizzBuzz”."

WE COMPLAIN ABOUT A LACK OF DIVERSITY AND INVITING ENVIRONMENTS…
…AND RUN HACKDAYS TO SOLVE THAT PROBLEM!
AND HAVE AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT OF RESOURCES WITH DISAGREEING ADVICE.

THERE ARE SO MUCH BETTER WAYS AT OUR DISPOSAL…

THEN HTML5 HAPPENED…
• required attribute • new field types: date,
color, tel, number…
don’t call me!
HOW EXCELLENT IS THIS?
✓ Form validation ✓ Pattern definitions ✓ Automatic filling by
browsers ✓ Hi-‐Fi interaction
BY UNDERSTANDING HTML5 PARSING, WE CAN HAVE BOTH…

ALL THIS IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF THE FAULT TOLERANT NATURE OF HTML (﴾AND CSS)﴿
on('error', () => { shrug(); line.next(); });
THERE ARE A FEW REASONS FOR THAT:
• The web is a mess. The average web page creeps up to 2MB with hundreds of dependencies.
• Outdated frameworks and helper libraries hinder browser interoperability. The quick fix of today is the part of the landfill of tomorrow.
• By trying to control the web we created parallel solutions for desktop and mobile -‐ each of which disappointing.
CHECK WHAT YOU BUILT AND FIX IT FORWARD…

THE HYPE IS MOVING AWAY FROM THE WEB TOWARDS MORE CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENTS.
THE WEB CAN’T COMPETE AS IT IS
AGAINST ITS NATURE.
THE NEXT USERS ARE NOT THOSE WHO COMPLAIN THE WEB IS NOT AS GOOD AS NATIVE APPS…

RELEASING OPEN SOURCE SOLUTIONS IS NOT RELEASING FREE CODE AND HOPING PEOPLE FIX AND MAINTAIN FOR YOU…
The toxic side of free by Remy Sharp (﴾@rem)﴿

THE WEB IS A GIFT TO US ALL, AND YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE IN MANY WAYS. ALL OF US PLAYING ON THE BLEEDING EDGE IS MISSING THE POINT.
We all have different desires and needs, but if we don’t discover what we want from ourselves and what we stand for, we will live passively and unfulfilled.
– Bill Watterson
SO BE ACTIVE!
✓ Improve your basic skills, catch up on what’s possible. caniuse.com is a riveting read!
✓ Start helping people who are not up to date. You start teaching and you end up learning.
✓ Report problems, demand support for basic features, not only for the hot, new (﴾half-‐baked)﴿ ones.
✓ Reach out beyond our echo chamber if you want to reach people who need the knowledge you have.
