FlexBuffers - Hackdot

Thanks for linking the article. Despite the original article being about FlexBuffers, I happen to have been looking at FlatBuffers vs Cap'n Proto today.

That article is a bit old; is there anything that stands out to you in the last ~5 years where things have diverged?

I haven't kept track of FlatBuffers so I don't know what might have changed there, except that I imagine they support a lot more languages now (probably more than Cap'n Proto honestly). Cap'n Proto's serialization layer hasn't changed very much in those 5 years; development focus has been more on the RPC system.
