> In a way, I can't be too mad at the Web because it made me realize I want nothing to do with consumer-grade tech. That side of the industry seems to revel in half-solutions and commoditizing developers.

I had a somewhat similar realization. Actually it made me drop out of high school and completely forget about going for comp-sci and a career in IT. Working in IT is still a possibility but if I do it, I will do it on my own terms (or at least in very good company). In the meanwhile, I'll keep programming as a dear hobby so I can focus on what I think is good and right.
