I’m sure you are correct about everything. Have s nice day!

These two are very different to each other. One was created mainly for designers (though it evolved later ) the other was created to teach programers. That’s quite different.
But I appreciate that you feel strongly about p5js. I’m sure it’s great and that it helped many people.

Yes, it’s not you, it’s the situation. It’s all good, right? It’s not you.
Bye.

Yes, a lot of assholes around trying to find any possible, no matter how absurd way to insult people about the most pointless stuff.

You clearly miss the point, intentionally or not intentionally, I don’t know. I thought it’s clear what the point is.
On one hand you have a tool like flash an integrated tool similar to other design tools, timeline, coding interface (that works with the timeline and elements on the board, thousand of libraries intended for people using flash, vast community resources. On the other hand you have pure coding. Not sure what your issue is. I don’t have time to go the full circle with you. That css game was made by a 10x programer. The same game would be made by a designer in flash.

You can use a notepad to create anything you want in web assembly, that’s not the point.

That’s just a web ide. Flash was a vector tool where you could for animate and also code.

You are wrong. You probably never used it. There is no such tools to develop apps like was possible with flash.
The argument that you can do with x technology today the same thing makes no sense. Today you have to be a skilled programer to do the same stuff and it might still work worse today as it did back then.
HTML5 is nowhere near as capable. Webgl . Is there a graphical tool to use it? JavaScript tool? Dumbass Lottie files tools that cost 20$ per month and suck.
And if you were a good programer in flash/flex, you could build apps just as stable as you can today.
It’s stupid that tech like this doesn’t exist. Except for dumbass Rive - again 45$ per month and it sucks

Nowhere near as capable. It’s more difficult and time consuming to develop for worse performance even today.

It was proprietary, apple hated it because it wanted to sell apps. And Google followed that model.

At the beginning it was. Later you could write it in code it was oop. Later there was an offshoot called flex that was even more capable.

Sure it’s possible, but you can’t actually do it. Because you need a dedicated programer and you need to convey as a designer what to do, so it’s time consuming and expensive. Elaborate scifi UIs are extremely rare now.
After flash was killed, a big portion of creativity died with it. Every webpage started to look the same. I know I’m romanticizing it, but there is truth in that.

I built websites and apps in flash. It was awesome. You could do a lot, especially in the later years, 3d games, anything was possible.
It was so easy and clean to create smooth animations, transformations, it was limitless. It’s a travesty that we got no replacement. You could do more quicker in the year 2005, than you can do today.

Not true. It was not about that.

I think we can speculate with a high degree of confidence that it won’t influence their profit growth projections.

Your are right, it’s better to get drunk and go into weird adolescent hyperbole about stuff we don’t understand and one up each other until we pass out.

Wow, that’s a terribly written article, or whatever type of text this is pretending to be.

Intentionally missing the point is not an argument in itself.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
That’s not what you are doing at all. You are not laughing. Anti ai people are outraged, full of hatred and ready to pounce on anyone who isn’t as anti as they are. It’s a super emotional issue, especially on fediverse.
You may be confident, because you probably don’t know how software is built. Nobody is going to just abandon all the experience they have, vibe code something and release whatever. Thats not how it works.

I think people today, after having a year experience with ai know it’s capabilities reasonably well. My mother is 73 and it’s been a while since she stopped joking about what ai wrote to her that was silly or wrong, so people using computers at their jobs should be much more aware.
I agree about that llms are good at some things. They are great tools for what they can do. Let’s use them for those things! I mean even programming has benefitted a lot from this, especially in education, junior level stuff, prototyping, …
When using any product, a certain responsibility falls on the user. You can’t blame technology for what stupid users do.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Ok? So, what you are saying is that some lawyers are idiots. I could have told you that before ai existed.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
No not really, just an observation. It literally said you are a boring person. Not sure whats not to get.
Bye.

Yeah, but … they also can’t just do nothing and possibly miss out on something. Especially if they already invested a lot.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
That makes no sense. That has nothing to do with it. What are you on about.
That’s like watching tv and not knowing how it works. You still know what to get out of it.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Sure. But you can literally test almost all frontier models for free. It’s not like there is some conspiracy or secret. Even my 73 year old mother uses it and knows it’s general limits.

You don’t have to know about tokens to see what ai can and cannot do.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
They are using it for every question. It’s pointless. The only reason they are doing it is to blow up their numbers.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
I don’t want to defend ai again, but it’s a technology, it can do some things and can’t do others. By now this should be obvious to everyone. Except to the people that believe everything commercials tell them.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
I find it bizarre that people find these obvious cases to prove the tech is worthless. Like saying cars are worthless because they can’t go under water.
