I once agreed with you, but now disagree. It's important to recognize that if you are introduced incorrectly to a topic, you are going to make some assumptions. As you learn more, you will slowly destroy these false assumptions, but you can never be sure you've gotten rid of all of them. Best to not allow them in the ...

There are still plenty of things that Flash can do that there is just no competing option for. You can code against an inbuilt timeline animation system.

I don't know if there's a good metaphor for ANNs short of "how actual neurons work". There's certainly no good metaphor for how a neural network decides that what it's seeing is an elephant. If we understood how human brains actually made that decision, we wouldn't need to use such frustratingly opaque techniques.

It does. Hence code completion. You install the extension for whatever you want to check. Jump to definition, will scan your libs, etc. it's a god damn IDE. If you install no extensions, it's a text editor, maybe.
