Web Developer... The Whole Thing
FUsername@feddit.de · 27 pts · 3y
So you mean a stack developer?
Terevos@lemm.ee · 30 pts · 3y
Yeah... Emphasis on the FULL stack.

Well he only did SOME of it. CSS and JavaScript is all after him.

Would be hilarious if he walked into a job interview and got grilled about it. "yeah, so it says here you worked on the web? do you have a portfolio? what frameworks did you use?"

I don't know how you would get more specific.

Missing "The" in front of title
alongwaysgone@sh.itjust.works · 24 pts · 3y
I mean. It's not wrong...

Developer of the Web
Chais@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 3y
Right? It's just missing the article.

Well, "Web Developer" is effectively a compound (like in German, we do the same thing but often just keep the spaces between the words).
With a compound, the connection between the words sometimes has to be inferred, usually by inserting an appropriate preposition.
Usually, something like "Developer on the Web" would probably be what we understand.
In TBL's case ... it's "Developer OF the Web".

I think it's a little more idiomatic (at least where I'm from in the US) to specify this difference as, "a web developer" vs "the web's developer"
maegul@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 3y
I think we’re saying the same thing.
Web’s developer = developer of the web +/- idiom
JoKi@feddit.de · 33 pts · 3y
Technically the truth
DmMacniel@feddit.de · 33 pts · 3y
Well, he kinda is :D

I'm too lazy to find a picture of a spider for this joke - this exercise is left for the reader.
nekomusumeninaritai@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 15 pts · 3y
Trivial exercise.

An excellent choice of picture - many thanks.

Reminds me of the time I went from being a PHP developer to being a PHP developer.

Jeez that's an old YouTube UI.
s0phia@beehaw.org · 19 pts · 3y
Had a good laugh from this. It's not wrong, though.

Is this 2008 YouTube I see before me? That's a throwback
communistcapy@lemmy.sdf.org · 11 pts · 3y

What'd Tim do again?
smitten@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 31 pts · 3y
He made a basic html site a couple years ago

If TBL was the web developer then what do I call what I was doing all those years...
