Which makes it non-news. Companies do not protect data if they are not liable. The cause-and-effect nonsense is merely there to protect the companies - and as long as no financial damage is to be expected, nothing will be invested into security.
Don't expect security if no one is liable. That's just plain nonsense.

Good points, and I agree.

Nobody appears to take any blame (admit to mistakes) anymore, right the way down the chain. Its a problem because there are no lessons learn't that way.

Anymore? When, pray tell, was admitting mistakes a common practice?

Go ahead and remove that word, because really nobody ever did. 
You're just noticing it now.

It was quick, look nice and responsive...
It looks from the inside a mess.
It can not be move away from the web server root.
It can not be break apart for maintenance and partial deployment (bug fixing).
It has already over 30,000 files checked in (and only two pages).
I was able to break into it within 5 minutes.
Works only HTTP or HTTPS, but can't switch (without code change).
The project structure is a mess (you actually have to search to find all style files).
The CEO thinks it is our future.
I have to think about mine...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I assume you are referring to ASP.NET?

From the first two lines, I was expecting a poem. 
It was quick, looks nice and responsive.
It looks from the inside a mess,
As if written by twenty blind drunkards
Who live in a big pool of cess.
It's stuck in the root of the server,
And cannot be split into parts.
The security system is broken;
It's about as much use as wet farts.
Turning on SSL is quite painful.
To find CSS is a farce.
After playing with it for ten minutes,
I can see it's a pain in the arse.
It has 30K files for two pages,
And some people think that that's fine.
The CEO thinks it's our future.
Now I have to think about mine.

Sounds like a typical ASP.NET project.

Talk to him. By far the single most biggest problem I see in tech is poor communication. Everyone is so damn afraid to talk. I'm sure he's a smart guy or else he wouldn't be in his position. If he doesn't know what's happening under the hood, then explain it to him.
Two jobs ago, I met a man who is the CEO of a company I used to work for. He did a lot of things right and earned some moola running another business but this was his first stint into tech. More than most of us can say for ourselves. He hired a bunch of tech guys, but didn't really know what was going on. Brilliant guy, but he had a hard time figuring crap out because guess what... none of the tech people would talk to him.
Communication man. Speak up now rather than later.
Oh and your CEO is right about the future of the web. He's just looking at it from a different perspective. Talk to him.

And it should go without saying by talk I mean listen. Active and real communication is about listening as well, not just opening one's mouth to hear sounds come out that are based on an idea of a conversation someone thought up in their head before they even talk to a person.

Truthfully, I'm sitting on defense about that.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Would you say it's accurate that all programming is essentially the process of writing functions that implement map, filter, and reduce? OK, one might argue that "fold", list comprehensions, and iterator generators should be added to that list, but in general, even the idea of persisting data to a DB or presenting data on a UI, is still one or more of those processes of M/F/R.

if you want to simplify it like that then you should replace "programmers" with "employees."
BTW: I'm neither but do both. (And my difference is only 1 more process.)
