NFTs, what are they and how are they used?

Non-Fungible Tokens, or NFTs, have been a hot topic in the digital art and collectibles space. But what are they and why are they so important? An NFT is a digital asset that proves ownership of a one-of-a-kind item, such as digital work of art or collectible. Unlike ordinary digital documents, which can easily be cloned and shared, each NFT is unique and cannot be replaced by another. This is made possible by blockchain technology, the same technology that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are based on.

Are Programming Languages Really Languages?

Are programming languages really languages? This is a question that was asked by the marketing team at one of the gatherings. Promptly and without thinking, I said "of course they are", because, as a person who has worked with many different programming languages for 16 years, at that moment I thought it was true. But now that we need to explain it a little and support it with facts, we come to the point that it is more of a philosophical question based on how who defines what language is, so here is my attitude to the question from the title.

Code Modularity

In the world of programming, developers often start writing code according to "regulations" or informal code-writing rules. They leave comments, write down what each function does, and usually what is the purpose of the whole script. But as the project moves forward, in order to achieve the goals and solve the task as soon as possible, instead of long-term time savings, we often opt for short-term success. The written script very quickly turns from beautiful code into something that everyone avoids, and finding bugs in that messy pile becomes a big challenge.

ASP.NET Core Health checks

Sooner or later, we need to know the status of our application, external services it uses and all other parts important for our application to work properly. For example, an application may have a health check for its database connection to ensure that the connection is still alive and working properly. If the database connection fails, the health check system can be configured to report the problem to interested parties. ASP.NET provides a built-in health check system that can be used to monitor these parts. Health checks are exposed by an application as HTTP endpoints, where the basic use case is to check the ability to a process request.

If I were to reduce them all to a common denominator, the focus would most often be on unintended and often unforeseen events that cause unwanted consequences. In this blog, I will try to bring you closer the topic of incidents using the example of an organization that has a large IT department as a support to the organization's primary business.

Euro Introduction From the Perspective of a Developer

As we all already know, or we have heard something about it, from January 1, 2023 Croatia is joining euro area, the Croatian kuna goes into oblivion and the famous euro comes to us as a 'new' means of payment. And now it may not sound like something big since, frankly, a lot of us have been using the euro for a long time in various conversions, payments and other financial combinations, so the introduction of the euro was probably only a matter of time.
