Date: 2007-07-23 06:36 pm (UTC)Every system I've used always grinds to a halt for a few seconds when it has to load the Java interpreter.
Of course, sites that are all Flash also annoy the fuck out of me, especially when using Flash for say... text display.

Date: 2007-07-23 07:05 pm (UTC)Recently I did a sweep of 'Add or Remove Software' and found about 10 Java Runtime Environment 'updates' installed each over 100 Mb. I sure hope I don't need all of those -- I deleted all but the last one. I don't know why the installer doesn't do it by itself.

Date: 2007-07-23 07:35 pm (UTC)On the other hand, Java applets typically run a hell of a lot faster than Flash stuff does, at least for me. Flash is a hideous unoptimized cycle pig.
On the gripping hand, Java's the butt of a hell of a lot of jokes about it being a bondage & discipline language. By all reports it seems to tend towards being mind-numbingly verbose.

Date: 2007-07-23 08:04 pm (UTC)As an executable, Java loses. Way too much baggage.

Date: 2007-07-24 07:36 am (UTC)I laughed. Amiga: the undead platform. It roams the earth, neither alive nor dead, eating the processors of the living platforms.
Also: Java sucks more. Flash if you have to, Ajax is less sucky, but I'mma sticking to the noframes version.

Date: 2007-07-24 04:02 pm (UTC)Now I'm considering a new re-design just because the current look is a bit dated and doesn't represent my present art skills and fashion sense. Oy.

Date: 2007-07-24 06:09 pm (UTC)Also, I was thinking about making my site somewhat interactive with some low-bandwidth animation and time-waster type stuff on the main page.

(Charlie references are good everywhere!)
Seriously, though, css is good because it lets you modularize the design, and on the whole is faster load times. Also, if you haven't checked it out already, I figure you'd get use out of Coda. It's a text editor, terminal, ftp client, web browser (for previews), and reference guide all in one window (using tabs) designed around web development. I don't use it because I shy away from raw HTMLing, but it's gotten good reviews.
