Lots of very well summarized stuff. But web development has changed so much since 2002 !
While all of these subjects are still relevant : debug, log, memory, unit test, etc. I think nowaday a beginner will rapidly face broader problems in his career :
.Deployment / monitoring / Devops / Cloud
.Frontend VS Backend development
.Mobile development
All these subjects were a lot more isolated 13 years ago.
What he calls "heavy tools" like database, Full text search, they have all become a lot more common today.
I wouldn't be surprised that a young developer will have to experience 2 or 3 different databases the first years he starts working (SQL / redis / mongo, etc)
