Rant on CSS bitching

I’ve gotten some interesting email on the subject, but let me be a little blunt. If you’re not a client-side developer — that is, if your world does not revolve around things like markup, CSS, JavaScript and basically what goes on in the client — I respectfully ask that you sit down and shut up.

Here’s an illustration: I know a handful of PHP, a smidgen of Perl, and I’ve installed Apache exactly once. Do I then go to my IT department and hold forth on the shortcomings of their system? No.
