How to spot a scam: CashFX

“They don’t con you because you’re stupid, they con you because you’re human.” — This is a work in progress. I’m writing about CashFX (interchangeably CFX) out of morbid curiosity and also because it has affected my wider family.

Coldfusion/Lucee/CFML & Cosmos DB

Last year I experimented with Azure’s Cosmos DB. It didn’t end up getting used but I had a simple proof of concept that worked and I thought others might find it useful as an introduction to using Cosmos DB with Lucee or Coldfusion. This is a very simple demo and the code is not structured how you would in a real-world project, but the aim was to make the code as simple to understand as I could. As Cosmos DB is accessed through an API this demo is essentially a function that interacts with its API and its particular requirements. I’ve only covered the basic functions of CosmosDB in this demo but all other functions will be a case of reading the manual and updating the functions.

How I Start the Technical Design Process

With a blank slate in front of you, how do you turn a pile of requirements into a technical design? — Recently I was asked what my approach to a new technical design is. I realised I’d never written it down how I go from nothing to an initial technical design, and that it was probably worth doing so, as much for my benefit. So this is an attempt at that.

Lunar Fund: a very bad deal or just too opaque?

First, the disclaimer: I’m not a cryptocurrency or Ether smart contract expert, just blockchain-curious. With a lot of buzz about cryptocurrencies and bitcoin forks lately (and forks that weren’t) my reading has triggered a fair amount of ICO advertising on my feeds. One of those was for Lunar Fund, a…
