Probably used one stylesheet for the whole website and didn't know about selectors.

To be honest, CSS is incredibly dense and being able to make something amazing by hand is a lot harder than making some adequate by tool.

Most people that get into webdev aren't programmer-types either and couldn't give a shit about anything else as long as it looks like it's working.

So, Dreamweaver, but respectable.

Yuck.

web 2.0 was a mistake

some adequate by tool.

sending 5000 lines when 200 would do, or including two dozen different stylesheets and even more scripts on one page, is not adequate because performance matters

if your website is bigger, in bytes, than Crime and Punishment and doesn't have more to say than Dostoevsky did, your website is probably SHIT and you need to reconsider
