Im confused why Python, Postgres, Markdown is 1996 tech? Im really confused by your entire post, actually.

I meant all this is super old school and super dirty, except markdown that is somehow recent (2004)

Yet markdown is not essentially different from running sed to render something into html, which I would have totally done if I hadn't also needed some other features like basic math that would have been too tedious in sed

I mean yea, but it is like saying, "I respond to server requests with HTML, it's soo 1994". I do like the sed idea, btw :)

lol yes I would not have used anything else if I could have gotten away with sed!

Speaking of HTML, I do my HTML sites all static, with no external scripts or resources! It is so 1994.. or so 2018??
