During an interview the HR guy asked me 2 questions that had the rest of the folks at the table offer me the job...
Q1: What 2 words best describe you?
A1: I would have to go with "Springer Guest"... Wait... the judge said "Repeat Offender"

Q2: What is your greatest weakness?
A2: I have a great distain for trick questions. I know you only want me to say something positive about myself because the negative thing about me is somehow a positive. But I am pretty grumbly hateful about it instead of humbly grateful.

I really do appreciate a good framework... My favorite one currently is Vanilla-js http://vanilla-js.com/

Check it out. Amazing performance.

More bacon!

You say correllation is not causation .... I know your a supra genius.

Isn't keeping a list of who not to track a form of tracking?

So if a client has money and wants to pay you money to produce a flash application, you say "N O"?

So your client wants the following:
Cross platform
Pixel precise design
Media assets (video/sound)
Custom media controls
Robust charting (Flex Charting).
Give you money to do it.
Accessibility for blind users.

What do you use?

My main reason for use Flash/Flex is that the runtime is consistent across platforms and I don't have to take the time to rebuild portions of my application for IE anomalies. I take the time to make my controls accessible for blind users. In my videos I even embed a Closed Caption player. I can lazy load my data when it is needed on the screen. And I can cache my RSL's to make my content smaller the next time you come back.

Until something better comes along. Long live Flash/Flex.
