Bitgo Plans to Launch Wrapped Bitcoin on the Tron Blockchain


Soon there will be another network that allows people to tokenize BTC in order to leverage the underlying blockchain’s speed and fees. On September 24, Bitgo, the custodian of the Wrapped Bitcoin project (WBTC), the most popular tokenized BTC platform to-date, announced a partnership with...

Web Technologies and Syntax


JavaScript has a (newish) feature called optional chaining. Say I have code like: const name = Data.person.name; If person happens to not exist on Data, I’m going to get a hard, show-stopping error. With optional chaining, I can write: const name = Data.person?.name; Now if person...

A Gentle Introduction to Using a Docker Container as a Dev Environment


Sarcasm disclaimer: This article is mostly sarcasm. I do not think that I actually speak for Dylan Thomas and I would never encourage you to foist a light theme on people who don’t want it. No matter how wrong they may be. When Dylan Thomas penned the words, “Do not go gentle into that good...

How to Create an Async Function


One thing I love about JavaScript is that there are many ways to accomplish the same task, one such example being creating functions. There are several patterns for functions; one of the last you see used is the new Function method: /* new Function(arg1, arg2 (...), body) */ const myFunction =...

Nova


Nova is a new (vehemently macOS-only) code editor from Panic, the folks behind Coda. It’s like “Coda 3” except this was such a major re-write that they gave it a whole new name. I played with some of the betas as they were building it. I got a little discount as it went live, so...

Over 40 Bitcoin Forks Are Down More Than 98% Since 2017’s Forking Fiesta


Since the summer of 2017, more than 44 forks of the Bitcoin network were created and so far many of them have lost considerable value and are near worthless. To-date only a few of the forks that stem from Satoshi’s creation have remained relevant during the last three years. There are three...

Weaved Webs


There is a bit of an irony with Jamstack. The concept is simple: you put pre-rendered, static files on web hosting (a CDN) designed to do that well. That’s it. If you need to do more, anything you do from there is done with client-side JavaScript, which is likely talking to serverless...

Editing HTML Like A Boss In VS Code


Here’s a seven minute video from Caleb Porzio that focuses on some of Emmet‘s HTML editing features. You might think of Emmet as that thing that expands abbreviations like table.stats>tr*3>td*3 into glorious, expanded, and perfect HTML. But Emmet has other HTML editing trickery...
