This thread is really alarming if you're like me and got Patrick Bateman confused with Jason Bateman

my secret mission with Perchance is to get people interested in coding with a smooth, fun learning-curve
Seems like it worked!
I do web dev on a daily basis, and I tend to think of HTML as "formatted" data.
A database has data in it, but it's in a format of columns and rows, like a spreadsheet.
My application fetches that raw data and uses code to manipulate it - it can inspect it, rewrite it, combine it with other data from other places, validate it against rules - all sorts of stuff.
Since my app is a web app, all that code is designed to use the data formatted in columns and rows from the database, and use it to generate new data in HTML format to send to the browser.
Technically, writing HTML for a browser is a form of programming - it's a set of instructions that tell the browser how to display the data in the HTML. It's not considered programming in a professional* sense, though, as HTML doesn't get, send, change, or process data. Its purpose is as a format for data to be sent and read by something else (the browser).
*professional as in job titles that affect your salary

This seems like a very good idea
Oh god, can you imagine the brine disposal problem with home use? People still pour motor oil down drains.
Fuck material UI. Forever.

Seconded. I'm a dude in my mid 30s and I love those movies
That's my jam, and its modern descendent, Democratic confederalism
Just mix them together.
Questionable! There was the whole thing when Jessica Walter spoke out about Jeffery Tambor that was very disappointing.
