Maybe I should explain myself better (now that I'm not on a mobile device) Because of Adobe's actions, I have ill-will towards Adobe. On the other hand, because of Adobe's actions, I have more job opportunities, and since I have switched over to JetBrain's tools, I also have a much more productive and impressive Coding environment. Except for the fact that I rely on the flashplayer, and read up on what it can and can not do, I no longer use any Adobe products to program. So while I still benefit from Adobe's work, I'm resentful about it in general. I can't label that anything but "being stupid". It's likely going to be a few years until I'm completely not using Adobe products at all, but I imagine that day will come. (Purely for emotional reasons)
As for Shumway, I don't understand how they plan on using pure Javascript to handle things like multiple audio channels, or video recording, or .SOLs without a browser plugin. I'm sure they will get it to work on firefox, but I don't see how it's going to work on any other browsers. I'm also curious what they are going to do with crossdomain.xml stuff. brought to you by the letters A, V, and I and the number 47 On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 6:36 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > > > On 10/28/13 6:14 PM, "f...@dfguy.us" <f...@dfguy.us> wrote: > > > >My deal is I've always preferred the programming model in the flash > >runtimes.
