Is web development for kids?

[yanis]

cssarrowplease.com 1323 tweets and 173points in HN? Somebody created a web page for displaying an arrow? Seriously? Next thing is 1k likes for displaying a popup which in most Widget libs is just new AlertBox("Hello world"); Is it me or the web is full of people who get excited rewriting UI components in a technology that was designed for documents (HTML/CSS)?

Who cares.

Someone made a site, people liked it. I don't understand what there is to be mad about.

I've only read the CSSArrowPlease post, but any interesting examples of problem solving, be it in CSS or C++, I like to read. That was one:

This should be a reply to the original HN thread on cssarrowplease.
