What is a "Javascript developer" exactly? Do you mean someone like Paul Buchheit?

I feel like there's a topical drift here that wasn't intended. Paul B's done some amazingly clever stuff, but would a PhD have made him better at that? My point wasn't that Javascript developers are dumb, but that a PhD isn't going to make you more qualified to do Javascript application programming.

Surely not him. The voting button code he wrote for news.yc is a total hack. I know, because I copied it and used it on my own site.
