I hate to be inflammatory but this is just stupidity masquerading as an evolutionary biology diatribe. No one is talking denying evolutionary theory; methinks thou doth protest too much.

I don't think a bunch of script-kiddies that learned a web framework and now think they are the second coming of Peter Norvig or Dennis but with the added benefit that they can "get naked chicks" are necessarily very high on the evolutionary ladder. Sorry to burst your bubble. I know a couple women PhD students that are brilliant Operating Systems researchers and work almost exclusively in the Linux kernel. They are not whipping RESTful CRUD apps with the Web framework du jour.

FACT: all this jibber jabber about evolutionary biology is completely irrelevant and just misses the point in a rather insidious way.
