Thank you for being condescending.
> The analogy between Java and the Web-* technologies is pretty obvious, unless you want to pretend you've never encountered the phrase "write once, run anywhere".
What does that phrase have to do with anything? And saying that Java (a platform) is somehow an analogy for "Web-*" technologies is a bit of a stretch (to be generous). They aren't even in the same category - for example, Java is a language / runtime / platform; WebRTC is a protocol. You can implement the latter on the former, but not the other way around.
Native apps aren't dead - they are still doing fine. There are a number of benefits to creating browser based apps - such as the ease of getting them and getting updates - that tend to be harder / lengthier for native apps. There are a bunch of benefits to native apps. We live in a world where its ok for people to improve both experiences.
