2021 A4 and A5 model line updates After an all-around refresh for the 2020 model year, 2021 A4 and A5 models bring additional technology and driver assistance features, as well as more streamlined packages across both models lines. CHICAGO— The first major overhaul in more than 25 years to the codes and guidelines for office and other outpatient evaluation and management (E/M) services was included in today’s release of the 2021 Current Procedural Terminology (CPT ®) code set published by the American Medical Association (AMA).
After 24 years of fun games and abuse by threat actors, Adobe has released their final Flash Player update and thanked everyone for the fantastic content that they have released over the years.
The first version of Adobe Flash Player was released in January 1996 and was immediately adopted by developers to create interactive content on the web. For many, the first introduction to an online game was through Flash games strewn across the Internet.
While Adobe Flash Player was immensely popular with users, it was also immensely popular with threat actors who exploited software bugs in the platform to infect users with malware.
Due to the security bugs and new technology, such as HTML 5, Adobe, Microsoft, Google, Apple, and Mozilla made a joint announcement in 2017 that they were retiring support for Adobe Flash Player at the end of 2020.
In the release notes for the final Flash Player 32 and AIR 32 released this Tuesday, Adobe thanks all the developers and customers for the amazing Flash content they have created over the last two decades.
'Today marks the final scheduled release of Flash Player for all regions outside of Mainland China. We want to take a moment to thank all of our customers and developers who have used and created amazing Flash Player content over the last two decades. We are proud that Flash had a crucial role in evolving web content across animation, interactivity, audio, and video. We are excited to help lead the next era of digital experiences,' Adobe stated in the final Flash Player release notes.
