A letter from Steve Jobs: Fuck you, Adobe

[LoopStationZebra]

A rather nice little interview I stumbled across:

What do you think are the ramifications for Apple? For Adobe?
HTML5 is a couple years behind in development, so I’m sure Steve Jobs is on the phone daily, yelling at people to speed it up.

ANOTHER BLOW FOR FLASH! ZOIKS!

Oh, and good to see Adobe's on top of the situation:

FLASH IS NOT A RIGHT

No matter what one chooses, and no matter how one reads Apple's intentions, there's something perhaps even more insidious going on among the programming public. Specifically, a large number of developers seem to think that they have the right to make software for the iPhone (or for anything else) in Flash, or in another high-level environment of their choosing.

lol.

Apple could soon be the target of an antitrust investigation by either the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice, according to numerous press reports, with the feds focusing on its new policy requiring developers to write iPhone OS apps using only Apple-approved programming languages.

That calls for one more round.

So in conclusion Apple haters still hate Apple and fanboys range from being mildly disinterested in this to couldn't care less. Time well spent. Let's all move to the Middle East and make similar progress on that situation.

thread should've ended on this post

Actually, we've already discussed this issue in the iPad thread and everyone unanimously agreed that Flash rules and is here to stay.

I think fash is a danger for big brother because one can create not searchable forums and alike.. therfore it has to die

I have no idea what 3phase just said. lol.

[H20nly]

he said big companies don't like flash because it doesn't play into their marketing and demographics (spying).

i think he's right.

He only learned enough english to be barely comprehensible when complaining in front of the largest percentile of Ableton users on the forum, that largest percentile speaking english. I mean, lets face it - there's no way he be handlin' real life bidness in english with the way he types; his use of english is limited strictly to complaining (a trait most common amongst Americans, oddly enough).

this cat is rolling a watermelon out of a lake because he would like to hear more stereotypes about those too...

^ Another common trait amongst americans - taking a joke the wrong way and turning it into something that is both worse and more idiotic.
