Not only do I not care if a project was completed in a weekend...
I don't care if a project came to someone in a dream and they wrote the code onto their bathroom mirror with their left hand, while shaving with their right hand.
I share some of the author's sentiment, but let me be clear: I'm sure some of these projects actually are finished in a weekend or less. But my view is that I don't care about that. Let's focus on the value of a project itself. How long it takes could be useful information for the purpose of critique, but doesn't need to be a central feature like "wow, you're coder superman".
