Even now, when we have strict HTML and CSS2 and some decent browsers, I still get chills sometimes at how fugly this whole "web-development" is... These "technologies" weren't meant to be what we use them for.
Just because 99% of people here dream of becoming .com-millionaires doesn't automatically turn these fashionable "technologies" a best way to introduce a kid to programming.
The absurdity of misused web "apps" for commercial purposes is one thing (especially if you get paid at the end), but fucking up someone's education is just cruel.
