Thought by 2023 I'd be forced away from foundations of HTML #PHP #JavaScript #CSS (and #WordPress).
A partial list of "hot and need to learn to survive" things over the past 20 years that didn't derail me:
– Flash/ActionScript
– ColdFusion
– Ruby on Rails
– (Countless JS "frameworks" that mostly don't exist today)
– Go
– JAMSTACK
– React
– AMP
– "Web3"
– Crypto
Some of these were/are useful. Some I learned… but still coding on same foundation I started 2 decades ago BLOWS MY MIND!
