> web programming is dead easy even for a beginner who has never touched programming

That one hurt. Some say it's easy as pie even for a kid, some say it's so complex with all the layers going on. Why can't we never see it as it is?

I also firmly believe that anyone who thinks web development is easier than any other kind of application development should stop writing crappy PHP and improve the quality of her/his own work.

You mean the fact the writing procedural code is outdated but still being used?
Don't let it get to you.

The web is just the interface. What's going on behind the scenes varies on the application. The parent made an extremely broad generalization.
