The solution is simple. Don't visit sites that employ Tynt.

Apple is treading the same path to the same type of market dominance. Apple isn't the underdog any more. Time to take a second look.

Windows users hate iTunes because they think it's crap. Apple users hate Flash because they think it's crap. Neither camp thinks their wrong. Go figure.

You mean the same simplistic way Apple users look at Adobe?

Great. So Apple will support Flash now that is it up to snuff? Please.

by tomlin 16y ago
"It also will support Flash, something Apple refuses to do, mostly out of spite." Oh, so we're being honest about it now?

None of what has transpired in the last few months smells of ultimatum. It's all very childish.

"We tested different websites with the Flash 10.1 Player on a Nexus One running Android 2.2 and here’s our first take: With Flash on your phone, no website is really out of bounds. Flash does not appear to be a battery hog, nor does it che

Trouble is, you're talking about you . Who may be perfectly logical and make sound decisions in the software you use based on the quantified experience. I've used enough Adobe software to confidently say that all of their software is n

> "I stop using Adobe, and my PDF reading is faster and my machine has more cycles I can use." Great. I agree that Adobe has some pretty shitty software. No doubt. My point is that Apple has some shitty software as well. iTunes comes to

I'm having a hard time thinking of a software company (who works for profit) that hasn't put annoying marketing ahead of good software or UX. Trendy hate tends to be very specific.

"You want attention after you’re good, not before." This one simple thing defines success in the majority. I really dig much of Jason Fried's insight.

We love not being a monopoly...except when it comes to hardware. We love touch screens...yes, we know Flash works on touchscreens. Don't wanna look up any of that pesky evidence . We love building open-source products...but we also like to

I have no problem with Apple excluding Flash from iPhone. Choice is great. However, I don't care for the mob mentality that is perpetuating false information in the name of "freedom of web".

I second that. I've not used the Adobe IDE for a few years. lurch_mojoff, please don't claim your personal experience as standard practice. Try a search on Google, or read a few blogs about Flash development.

I agree with what you're saying. However, I am alright with a website being 100% reliant on Flash just as I am alright with a website being 100% reliant on video. The key issue here is openness, not platform.

That's great rhetoric and philosophy, yet it's incredibly clear that the decision to eliminate other frameworks from compiling into iApps (the day of CS5 announcement, no less) is motivated by ignorance. Ignorance that costs developers unne

It's hardly a fact. A few months ago it was a "fact" that you could publish using CS5. http://blogs.nitobi.com/jesse/2010/04/14/phonegap-and-the-ap... Tomorrow it could also be a "fact" that PhoneGap violates the same 3.3.1 clause. Truth

WiseWeasel, dude, you're all over the place. Like many of the "vs." crowd. I am gonna hit all of your points, so you don't Republican the debate. ThomPete - you're a voice of reason and contemporary fact. To the "vs." crowd: try and read al

Rely is a fair word to use. It would be sensible to say that these enterprises also rely on IIS, Apache, Microsoft Word, Excel, Photoshop or a long list of other software that they likely rely on. None of which would dismantle their int

I sorta see your point. But the word committed is being used properly. No one is this picky about the hyperbole Steve Jobs hands out in the form of fact.

Flash developers (read: not designers hacking together an intro/banner) don't care if the Flash technology dies. Flash developers want the development experience that Flash offers. HTML5 doesn't offer it...yet. When it does, I personally wo

Admitting he/she doesn't normally bother to read points in entirety - upvoted. Ignorance is bliss.
