That's remarkably similar to what I keep hearing from winio fanbois.
My response is the same, then: change has to be for the better.

How often have I heard that by now?
"It's the future. Keep up or you will be left behind."
That's ok. It's not the first 'future' to go down the tubes and being left behind is ok as long as everybody else seems to be running in circles.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Death by being burned alive is interesting - probably not a good idea though.

There's such a great solution to these types of events.
When I use javascript, it's just plain javascript. Same for php.

Yeah, with Angular 2 not even ready for production, I think I'll stick with my legacy v1 for a bit.

Nonsense. There are dozens of browsers that can handle it just as well or better.
It's like you still keep seeing "You need acrobat reader to view this document" everywhere -- even on UK government sites!

You missed something here... They are talking about moving AWAY from Flash...to HTLM 5 player...
I was pointing out, that they recommend for HTLM 5 Chrome or Firefox (and not IE or Edge) on Windows!!!

Sure, but I won't use Chrome or Firefox, either, and I'm not too happy about being told which browser to use -- it brings back too many memories of when almost every site owner annoyingly insisted that his site was "Best viewed in my favourite browser", during both of the browser wars.
If they said "May not work perfectly in Edge", I'd be happy with that; but I'll decide for myself which other browser to use, ta very much.

The natives might have some objections to that.
Mind you, since they're 235 trillion miles away, it'll take us a while to get there.

It might be an idea to confirm that there is actually a planet there, first.
Unless you want to send the telephone sanitisers off as an exploratory party.

Now I'm really tic'd off. Although, I must hand it to you - really wound up in the zone this time.
(I suppose, if they lost some wait, it would save time - but I'd never post that here).
