    Ups, I forgot to add the ??? in the title, what I really want to said, is Why Flash must die??? On those days I had see several articles like this: http://www.wired.com/2015/07/adobe-flash-player-die/[^] and it's funny, specially when I see comments like: "Flash is a closed, proprietary system on a web that deserves open standards. And it’s a resource-heavy battery suck." When I believe that is exactly what makes it strong... being not open source means, it have one single standard, the company behind it makes it work the same from browser to browser... so, you could be asking, what is my point? well if you have work with WebApps you already know how painful and time consuming is working with JS, each browsers implements their own standards, I think JS main issue is also what makes it "stronger" the opensource, due no real company/agency ensuring it as a unique standard, its open for multiple implementations. It's ridiculous how a simple JS will not work the same from browser to browser, and sometimes is just to show a single button!!! a button, so old that I don't understand how this code can be broken! Well, I know Flash lost the war, but think on it, shouldn't we be finding something better than JS? something that makes us work just in a single code version without needed extra tools to make our JS Browser compatible? You guys should see me each time I found the issue is only present in IE or Chrome... or some browser, each time I found one I jell I f*** hate JS, and my coworkers already know I found another compatibility issue. (Developers shouldn't need to implement code like: if IE then this, if mozilla then this, is chrome then this.... it's just ridiculous)

        Fire All Weapons - and dispatch Ajax to bring back his body asynchronously!

        - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
