   It is a nice mini-blog, it's for free and such but

   As a mini-blog, it is a nice alternative for Medium to publish and share information about programming.

   However, the community and the organization are biased toward social justice (and they are open to it). You can read its Code of Conduct, it is so vague and politically leads (I prefer a term of service because it defines fair rules for everybody). So it alienates developers that we don't care about politics in pro of people that want to talk about any other topic such as sexuality, how women are unprivileged, and such. It even mandates to use inclusive language. Good grief.

   My main complaint is the quality of the community. It is not StackOverflow (so we don't want to ask for an answer here), and most of the top topics are clickbait, such as "how to become a rockstar developer in ... days", "100 tips to become a better programmer" (and it doesn't even talk about programming).

   Technically this "mini blog" site allows us to use markdown, and it is okay. However, the whole experience is really basic. Even the template is ugly.

• JavaScript still can't ship a full-stack module

  While developing Wasp, a JS full-stack framework, we keep researching other ecosystems (Rails, Laravel, Django, etc.) and finding ways how they figured out developer productivity. We kept finding these reusable legos, so we gave them a name: "full-stack modules". Let's define what we mean by that exactly. - Source: dev.to / 11 days ago

• How to Get Your First Tool Online

  Getting a first thing online is a milestone worth not reaching alone. A MLH hackathon is the perfect place to try: build, break, and deploy alongside other people over a weekend. And DEV is always here for the other parts, open all the time, where a new coder can post the project, ask for feedback, and read how someone else cleared the same hurdle. - Source: dev.to / 16 days ago

• AI slop and the content treadmill every developer is on

  Same idea. Four rewrites. Four character budgets. Four hashtag policies. Four mental models of an algorithm I do not control and cannot see. And that is before you reach Mastodon, Threads, Reddit, a newsletter, dev.to, and whatever launched this quarter. - Source: dev.to / 18 days ago

• should i play definitive or original version?

  Definitive Edition has some quality of life features the original doesn't have (for example, checkpoints and GPS), and the bugs in the Definitive Edition aren't nearly as bad as people make them out to be. When I played through it I didn't encounter anything major. As for performance issues, all I can say is that I played through the game on an Xbox One S the December after it released and it was fine.

  According to pcgamebenchmark.com , I can run the game, but according to systemrequirementslab.com I cannot because of the graphics card and CPU. What do you think considering the specs below? Thanks. Source: almost 3 years ago

• PC gaming virgin on a budget (UK)

  I'm pretty clueless when it comes to pc gaming. I know that for the latest games I'm likely looking at around £1k budget, and this is not something I have right now. I've been looking at second hand laptops or desktops, and using https://pcgamebenchmark.com to see what games they might run (no idea how accurate this is), and it looks like I could easily play most total war games on a second hand laptop or desktop...

• Can my laptop run it?

  Hi, I need advice here, so I look at pcgamebenchmark.com and it says my laptop can run it. However when I go to steam to purchase the game, I noticed that the minimum specs is different.
