• Ask HN: Why Adobe still can't figure out Flash on WASM?

  From the point of view of Adobe, Flash is a legacy technology. Simply put, there is not enough business to be made with it at Adobe's scale. It is safe to assume that the Flash team has either left the company or moved to other roles in the meantime. The Flash codebase is gigantic, evolved over decades and probably includes IP with non-obvious licensing restriction (RTMP is an example that pops to mind).

• Ask HN: Why Adobe still can't figure out Flash on WASM?

  There is a company that got Flash working in WASM but they don't have public pricing so it's probably crazy expensive. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Prime Video Uses WebAssembly

  It will definitly be the new common, by killing Flash et all without comparable tooling, while at the same time offering WASM, it was only a matter of time until we had the revenge of plugins. Basically 10 years wasting time to come full circle. https://leaningtech.com/cheerpj https://leaningtech.com/cheerpx-for-flash/ https://opensilver.net/ All of the three major ones are now back, but it is ok, WASM is great! - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Show HN: Run Python, Ruby, Node.js, C++, Lua in the Browser via x86 to WASM JIT

  The point of this technology is generality. It is theoretically possible, given enough work, run Python directly in Wasm. The effort would be, though, Python specific and you would need to start from scratch for every single language.
