JavaScript will be around in the foreseeable future for many years to come. I'm not sure you can say the same for Flash.
Hmm. I'm almost entirely certain it was you.

I guess not. Doesn't really matter.

Someone said JavaScript was a dying language and that we should instead use languages like Perl or Ruby and use Perl/Ruby-to-JavaScript converters to convert the program to JavaScript. It was the probably the dumbest thing I'd ever heard. Their justification was that JavaScript is too difficult for people to learn. So apparently people who already knew JavaScript needed to learn a different language and use it instead to perform the task they already knew how to do.

Still pretty sure that was you.
