Flash? I mean really? Shouldn't it be using HTML5 etc? Flash is so '95 - an impression I get more and more from new projects at Apache. It starts to look as if Apache becomes a dump store for old code.

- jtheory 15y agoFlash is getting less fashionable, but browser support is pretty much ubiquitous. What good is HTML5 if you're trying to set up calls with people working in large, locked-down corporations, hospitals, etc., where they don't have the choice of installing a modern browser on their work computer? It's frustrating has hell, as a developer, but IE6 is still a painful reality for many users.

- georgemcbay 15y agoThe great thing about having no real definition ('HTML5' is beyond meaningless at this point as a name for real, actual technology) is that it means you can theoretically use it to do anything at all!
