The Elephant in the Room: Web design work is drying up | Hacker News
- A "web designer" or "web developer" used to be a generalist who wrote HTML, CSS, and some jQuery.

My point isn't to jump straight into building these ideas — even though I do believe they point in a better direction and are feasible — but rather to break out of the incrementalist rut and stagnant vision that the Web finds itself mired in.
