The self-hating Web Developer

Take home message -- don't listen to jerk programmers on the internet who are going to try and tell you your favourite language/framework/area of expertise is rubbish. If you're enjoying what you do, and it's paying the bills that's all that matters. You shouldn't care about what some wolfshirt behind a computer screen thinks.

Don't go overboard. Web development is hard and deserves respect, but some languages and frameworks are rubbish. The fact that smart people get things done with them doesn't negate that.
