Well I'm maybe too closed minded about this but every time I come across something that needs high performance I think it would be better off as a real application instead of an in-browser app/game. I'm also biased because I'm a mac user that's extremely unhappy with all the crappy Flash app performance/UX things. I'v...

Right, videomixing requires decrypting and encrypting it again. It has the hardware available to encrypt in real-time so its just a matter of FPGA size if that functionality currently wont fit in the chip used.

A lot of those people struggle as soon as functions appear (whether they're trig. functions like sin() cos(), simpler ones like sqrt(), or log()).

Your comment is analogous to a claim that most people are too stupid to read, would have no use for reading anyway, and could just employ a scribe if they need any reading or writing done for them.

The single biggest issue for HTML5 taking over from Flash has been performance.

No, but I think it'd be quite easy to bait and switch. Suddenly there's a mono extension that only works on windows (extend), and the current features are then deprecated (extinguish). Now you're locked into windows for *web* access.

I'm guessing that's because it's not their code. They licensed the Foxit SDK for the PDF viewer, so any issues with how it works are probably just forwarded upstream and they cross their fingers for a fix.

Exceptions. Imagine the following sequence of events: 1. you delete state 2. "new whatever()" throws 3. (bad) whoever has "state" on his hands now has 0xdeadbeef and no way to realize that (in this case, an instance of the Player class). Rule of thumb: pointer members like Player::state need to be handled carefully...

I guess they did the split for: 1. the browser; browser is like a complete desktop OS for many-a-user anyhow 2. developers, who can now write exactly one code for both tablet, desktop, etc. 3. eye-candy-hungry (read: gullible) public, as a marketing point.
