This is the second of two lead-up articles to How Blockchains Work, which will explain the foundation of blockchain-based technologies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Stay tuned for it! In the meantime, read this and my post on cryptographic hash functions.
I decided to create a time-lapse screen recorder as a side project. Mostly for fun, but also to see how I spend my work days.
A few people getting started in web development have asked me to explain HTML to them. HTML (along with CSS) is one of those things where the basics can be explained in a few minutes, and the details will take the rest of your life to learn.
