What's sad is that web development is only a nightmare so websites can be worse.

I genuinely believe it's part of the concerted effort by the cabal to make us accept a 'new normal.'

They don't want an environment where anyone feels like they can make a website. They want us to believe we need to spend years studying before we can do anything, and even then we can only do what our bosses tell us to.
