Same here. Got a job to do some java. 6 months later, I had to learn angular. 6 months later I was not in the company anymore.

HTML was not designed to be dynamic. There are too many redundant feature of HTML/CSS/JS, and honestly I would make everything obsolete and design a new document format with a open binary format.

Exactly. HTML was a document markup language. Articles, etc. Some forms.

We're now building applications. Applications have a totally different layout model. Only recently we're able to use flexbox. But it's insane. Just build the layout / application in something that really works (any of platform UI toolkits / markups), and use HTML for document flow.
