If you’re having trouble finding them, ask yourself: Am I a bad client, or am I looking in the wrong place? You can usually find them cleaning up after the rest of us
Or alternately: here?

The title of the article should had probably been software developers or application developers, instead of web developers. Web developers used to be regarded as web designers with some scripting and Photoshop skills, where an application developer can develop 3 tiered applications no matter the front-end.
I actually got started as a "web developer" about 15 years ago, specializing in HTML and CSS, with some JavaScript, and ASP 3.0. After too many short projects, I moved into application development and been there and gainfully employed since.
Yes, it is better to pay for top talent or even good developers, instead of having a bunch of mediocre performers. I myself do much more than my 3 team members combined, yet there isn't much difference in our salaries. They're lucky it isn't my business!

As you’ve read, the new Office is here and for developers, this is an exciting time! The ability to insert add-ins into your documents, call new Office.js APIS, launch task panes inside your Office clients and run commands directly from the ribbon increases the productivity of your entire team! Programmatic access to the ribbon! W00t!

Is Office.js a replacement for VBA, or a completely independent cluster-elephant (like VSTO[^]).

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Doesn't seem to be "here" in the UK yet. Our Office365 is still claiming that Office 2013 is the latest version.

Despite a mix of solutions from SharePoint to Office 365 Groups, Microsoft's approach to collaboration is stuck in the past -- it doesn't have to be that way Email deemed archaic?

Both the UK[^] and US are currently experiencing unexplained growth in their productivity gap. I'd bet an analysis would show a positive correlation between email use and meetings and a nation's productivity gap.

Claiming that sacking person guilty of creating blotus notes as the reason why MS is failing kinda kills the credibility of the rest of what the author is saying. (Below the baseline level of implicit drek from it being published on infoworthless anyway.)

Google will soon let advertisers tap into one of the most lucrative types of ad targeting: email addresses. Pardon me while I go close all my email address accounts

I guess I'll have to dust off my old trusty "blowme@devnull.com" email address.

My only email address is:
SoYouThinkYoureGonnaSpamMe@mailinator.com
I just made it up this instant, but it's 100% real thanks to Mailinator.com
Seriously, check it...

Mailinator.com is really cool.

Gmail should automatically block them as spam.

And to think for the last few years I'd been thinking using one gmail address for friends/family/etc and a second for websites/etc had been a mistake that was over complicating my life. (At the time I assumed Google's spam filter would end up sucking as badly as my prior providers and after a few years I'd want to nuke the account I'd exposed to the wider web because it was full of garbage.)

Recently Ars was made aware of a group out there that claims to be actually preparing for the happy day when human consciousness can inhabit a machine. In fact, it's already experimenting a bit with some initial attempts at making that happen. "They look human... sweat, bad breath, everything. "
