New Years Resolution: when I talk about technologies, I will avoid demeaning the users of those technologies. I will also avoid calling technologies "dead", "dying" or other words meant purely to demoralize users of the technology.

For what it's worth, there's a difference between a technology that literally doesn't work anymore its target environment (like Flash on the web) and technologies that still work but are seen as passe (most tech people call "dead").
-
But even in the case of Flash, I see no reason to demean or demoralize its developers.

Yeah, private apps need to be maintained. The public web & latest gadgets are not the entire market. Riot kept maintaining an Adobe Air app (LoL Client) for a good while even after Adobe deprecated it. Kept servicing ~100M people even after the tech was "officially" dead.

The new LoL client will support for a good while Windows XP and consequently Chrome 49. If products are shipping
