Blockchain Finally Finds Use Case: Proving You Attended a Meeting You Didn't Want to Attend
blockchain_survivor 9 hours ago
I've worked in blockchain since 2017. I've seen "the use case" change every 6 months. First it was payments, then smart contracts, then NFTs, then DAOs, now this.
Honestly? Meeting attendance verification makes more sense than most of what I've worked on.
JavaScript 2025: We added types but called them "hints" to avoid admitting TypeScript was right
After 10 years of debate, 47 abandoned proposals, and what committee members describe as "the most passive-aggressive RFC process in programming language history," TC39 is proud to announce that JavaScript now has types.
Well, not "types" exactly. We're calling them "Type Hints" or, in the specification, "Optional Structured Commentary Regarding Value Expectations (OSCRVE)."
(Interesting that it goofed up the title)
