Flash had a long life, it was a fairly secure platform until about 2007... and that was close to the end, by 2009 it was a dead product thanks to shifts in technology and Adobe’s inability to keep moving a platform forward. Read more

I used to be a Flash designer, and even though that was my bread and butter for at least 3 years, I’m still happy Adobe did away with it. It was clunky at it’s worst, and most designers (the majority were designers, not actual coders or developers) didn’t know enough about Actionscript to develop light weight, elegant… Read more
I’ve been wondering if they would for like 15 years. At this point i’ve concluded that they will likely sit on it until no one remembers it or wants it. The part that really sucks is that when it came to animating for the web it beat everything I knew of. Just google “Open Source Flash” to see petitions and projects.

Is there a way for some group to continue on with it? Will Adobe allow it to go open source?

But wasn’t he doing the right thing by getting off the road and trying to sleep it off? Read more
It seems like a lot of these stories involve tasing someone... that person somehow gets the taser... they feel threatened and apparently have to kill a guy. Read more
This!! When driven like a hybrid you can get crazy mileage. When driven like a sports car you get 30. I don’t know why people never got that Read more

Art car show in Oakland, back in 2005. I’m going on a 13-year-old memory of five minutes spent with the car, but I believe all the, um, body work may be one-off, fully molded fiberglass body panels. Read more
I have seen this car up close. From what I remember, and as near as I could tell, these are actual fully-formed body panels. You may end up having to reskin the entire car. Read more
This car feels like if you took a bunch of Yes albums and other prog-rock paraphernalia... Read more

Miyazaki says it as though Miyazaki is a great man, and Weinstein is some worthless, flabby, sack of crap, and Miyazaki does not negotiate with worthless, flabby, sacks of crap. Read more
I doubt it was a real one. Probably a replica. Maybe even a blunt one, enforcing the idea that it cannot cut anything. Read more
Great to know people stood up to him when he thought he was invincible. The way Miyazaki spoke about him just sounds like he seethes with distain for him. Read more
Interesting. It is one of those things like the Wienermobile or the GM Motorama buses that a few people probably vividly remember but which might've completely slipped away. The right buyer might pay big for one of those. Though I live in the south, I didn't remember them, and the article reveals that they probably… Read more
