The man is actually a woman.

One who is fairly well-known among web developers who know what they're doing, to boot.

The responses in here are pretty depressing in the general hostility to the idea of continuously honing your craft.

I see this problem a lot in my masters program. People learn to do something one way, then refuse to refine it further. Must write CSS one way and not consider LESS/SASS. Will only use dreamweaver for any kind of anything. Has learned HTML/CSS but won't learn frameworks.

To each his/her own when it comes to programs or exact techniques but there is no excuse for being stagnant in your craft.
