🤥 4. "Cheat Codes" are an intuitive way to modify state of contracts you don't own, modify blockchain values, and more "magic" so you can test for any occasion.
💪 5. The logo is clearly my twin brother.
@Sabnock66 gave me the motivation I needed! Thank you! We added improvements like:
🎲 VRFv2
🔮 MockOracle calls for API Consumer
📝 Prompt-based deployment scripts
🔵 More @chainlink based goodies
If you want to add anything, PRs are welcome!
...And I sort of want to rework the scripts to use #python in the future, but maybe I'll hold off on that, for now 😉 🐍

Trivia: Proxies are often used for upgradeable smart contracts. They use delegatecall to call functions of a contract that has the logic they want, but store data in themselves.
Continuing the theme from my last trivia, why is this a bad proxy contract?
So there were two issues here:
1. setImplementation is public, meaning anyone can update this proxy!
2. The proxy uses a storage slot to hold the implementation address. If the implementation has storage, you’ll get hilariously rekt by storage collisions.
📀A proxy contract stores data in the proxy contract based on the implementation.
This means, if your implementation stores data, it might overwrite where we saved the implementation address!
You might think this is an easy step to skip, but if you don't have an unbreakable, bulletproof reason to become a blockchain engineer when it gets hard, you might back off. 💪

#Blockchain allows us to do amazing things, the easiest value add to understand is smart contracts.
In my CS class back in 2013 my professor taught us about #Bitcoin and I literally went “that sounds stupid”.
2/ Why does it have value? I also never thought gold made any sense either. Now my point of view has changed on Bitcoin and I think it has its place as a store of value.
However, I thought blockchain didn’t do much aside from a digital gold.
3/ I didn’t understand why people were so hyped.
Fast forward to a couple years working at a hedge fund. I get to see aaalllllll the shit of the current financial world. I got to do something called “trade matching” as part of my jobs.
