But it's Schroedinger's wallet: until they open it, the coins are either inside it or not (unless it contains only one address, which is highly unlikely, given the personality of whom we're talking about).
He could be living it up in the Bahamas right now, spending all the money that people think is still in the wallet.

Earth's magnetic north pole, which has been wandering faster than expected in recent years, has now crossed the prime meridian. Someone should put a magnet over top of it to keep it in place

With any blanket statements like this, there are always exceptions. Though in general, I believe the use of enums is often a better choice compared to boolean, unless you really need to squeeze your data into one single physical bit. True? or False?
His example is less blankety than the title. Fortunately.

Just use this enum[^] instead.

True or False or Maybe

Maybe I will, maybe I won't.
As for the silly demands of the article, decide on whether (or not) to use Booleans based on performance testing... which it sounds like the chappie never does.

How would using enums over booleans negatively affect performance?

You'll only find out if you perform performance tests.
If you assume that there will be no difference without performing performance tests, you're taking one more step toward the bad-developer world.

People that can't (or shouldn't) write code are the ones writing articles about "best practice".
Sometimes, irony shows up and kicks you right in the booleans.

100,000 phishing attempts?
About a hundredth of one e-mail, then.

Beginning January 15, 2020, Microsoft will be delivering its new Chromium-based Edge browser automatically to Windows 10 users via Windows Update, unless its Edge Blocker Toolkit is applied. "Livin' on the edge. You can't help yourself at all"
I wonder if they also have a Windows Blocker Toolkit?

I talk to a lot of students and professional developers that often want to start a side project, but aren't sure what to build. What, were you going to spend your upcoming holidays with family and friends?
