Svelte and Spring Animations
8.1.2021
Spring animations are a wonderful way to make UI interactions come to life. Rather than merely changing a property at a constant rate over a period of time, springs allow us to move things using spring physics, which gives the …

A Conversation with One of Bitcoin Cash’s Most Prolific Developers
8.1.2021
Calin Culianu is the #1 contributor to the Electron Cash project. Also, he contributes to BCHN, and has created the Fulcrum server. Definitely a Bitcoin Cash hero in my book. I picked his brain a bit about all things Bitcoin Cash, and got some juicy answers. Calin likes to talk, so let’s...
Make Your Own Tools

Spencer Miskoviak on the Wealthfront blog:
By creating custom DevTools specific to an app, they can operate at an even higher abstraction to handle things like user interactions, or debugging tracking events. While this requires building and maintaining the

The Best Things We Paid Real Money for in 2020
31.12.2020
For better or for worse, in many ways, 2020 was defined by capitalism, a system unprepared to provide as many hospital beds as there are sick people during a pandemic. Or PPE gear to health care workers exposed to those sick people. Or even face masks to those ordinary people just trying to shop...
Altseason and $30K in sight: 5 things to watch in Bitcoin as 2020 ends
28.12.2020

clipPath vs. mask
27.12.2020
These things are so similar, I find it hard to keep them straight. This is a nice little explanation from viewBox (what a cool name and URL, I hope they keep it up).
The big thing is that clipPath (the element in SVG, as well as clip-path in CSS) is vector and when it is applied, whatever you...
The worst things on the internet in 2020
24.12.2020
Look, even without COVID, 2020 was going to be garbage. It was an election year, for fuck’s sake, so a glut of unhinged political punditry was destined to clog up our social media feeds and needle our glazed eyeballs. In keeping with tradition, it all turned out to be even worse than we could have...
2020 Roundup of Web Research
22.12.2020
It’s December! Lots of things are published this time of year, like developer advent calendars and organizations reflecting on the past year. We have even our own end-of-year series where we asked folks what they learned in 2020. But we also see lots of research come out around this time....

Další služba Googlu se odporoučí. Android Things se začnou vypínat už v lednu
17.12.2020
Google v roce 2016 zveřejnil Android Things – platformu, která měla sloužit pro chytrá zařízení. To ale nevyšlo a od ledna příštího roku začne celý ekosystém ukončovat. Finální konec přijde začátkem roku 2022.
Náznak konce platformy nastal již před více jak rokem, kdy v lednu 2019 Google změnil
21M Bitcoin and the Promise of Scarcity
17.12.2020
In Bitcoin, the promise of a limited supply is great. This was one of the biggest things that initially appealed to me when I heard about Bitcoin. “No more than twenty one million bitcoins will ever exist!” But can this promise be kept in the long run? Has the Promise Already Been...
It’s Always Year Zero
16.12.2020
In the short term, opinions about technology often follow a compressed form of Laver’s Law:
Everything just before me was completely broken.
Everything that comes after me is completely unnecessary.
Everything I use right now is perfectly fine; stop changing things.
We tend to judge things based...

Not Much
14.12.2020
What’s one thing I learned about building websites this year? Not all that much.
This year, unlike most previous years, I didn’t explore a lot of new technologies. For obvious reasons, it’s been a difficult year to be as engaged in the hot new topics and to spend time playing around with...

Another $1,000 CME futures gap opens but Bitcoin shows clear strength as it aims to tackle pivotal $20,000 resistance
There is No Normal
12.12.2020
This year I learned, or relearned maybe, that “normal” is subjective at best, and pretty misleading otherwise. If this forsaken year has taught us anything, it’s that there is no such thing as normal. Things change. People adapt. Everything is relative to everything else.
Besides being quite...
Let’s Create a Lightweight Native Event Bus in JavaScript
11.12.2020
An event bus is a design pattern (and while we’ll be talking about JavaScript here, it’s a design pattern in any language) that can be used to simplify communications between different components. It can also be thought of as publish/subscribe or pubsub.
The idea is that components can listen...
Founder David Sønstebø out of Iota Foundation after ‘unanimous' board decision
11.12.2020
The Iota board said it had “parted ways” with Sønstebø due to the fact its interests have “diverged significantly” with those of the co-founder
