Apple Developer profile question thinks JavaScript, AJAX, Ruby, Rails are same

Who cares? The profile questions were probably written by some HR flack who doesn't know the details of the technology. Not really surprising, but not interesting, either.

Since they also put Perl, Python, and PHP together maybe they are going for "cool" versus "uncool" web developer (I kid, I kid).

I like how CSS is by itself. Since I never use HTML or Javascript in the same project as CSS :P

I pointed the same thing out to a coworker. Then again, Apple doesn't really understand the web.

edit: I got down-voted I assume for saying Apple doesn't understand the web. I think it is a fair comment. They don't have many web properties and don't provide tools for web developers other than Web Objects (which isn't even on their list). I don't know many web devs that use xcode. So, does Apple really understand PHP and Ruby?

Also notice how it says "Internet Plug-ins" instead of Flash or Silverlight.

I had to think for a moment to realize that java is actually a "web technology". But, the applet tag does die in HTML5.

Maybe they think these skills define membership in a useful cluster?

What do I check if I use CSS 2 ?
