Hint: smart people disable Java applets nowadays ; )
- pavs 14y agoIts easier to embed dozens of java applets that are freely available then to write a custom solution just for one small moderately interesting article.
- dougk16 14y agoTrue, but nytimes has proven they have some HTML5 chops (http://www.nytimes.com/projects/2012/snow-fall/#/?part=tunnel-creek http://www.nytimes.com/projects/2012/snow-fall/#/?part=tunne...), and JavaScript-based chess viewers are readily available (http://code.google.com/p/pgn4web/ http://code.google.com/p/pgn4web/). Considering the recent Java scare, I think it's reasonable to be mildly surprised by them using applets. I'm starting to be surprised even when I see Flash these days, much less applets.
