The denial is strong in this one...

Flash “powers some amazing experiences that work consistently across all of the major browsers in a way that cannot be replicated without Flash technology,” Beladaci writes on the Occupy HTML5 Facebook page.


*cough*Android*cough*IOS*cough*

Quote:
Although Flash may be in decline, it will not be going away soon. Though a detractor, Drost still sees Flash hanging around for some time. For one, Flash offers a much better authoring environment, with Adobe’s Animate CC, than anything developed in the HTML5 world, he says.

“There’s no parallel in HTML5. So perhaps the legacy of Flash will live on and Flash the authoring environment still today can export HTML5,” he says.


Aren't Mozilla and Google planning to outright ban flash from their browsers in a year or two? Once that happens flash will involuntarily join various other legacy cluster-elephants that are the only reason to continue using IE after you've downloaded a second browser. D'Oh! | :doh: D'Oh! | :doh:

And if Adobe's editing tools can be used to write HTML5 instead of flash, doesn't that mean HTML5 does have access to the same better tooling. Confused | :confused:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
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?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
