   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.

• What Is AI Agent Tool Calling? MCP, Function Calling, and A2A Explained (2026)

  That is the gap Arcade.dev is purpose-built to close. Unlike a routing gateway that simply proxies requests, Arcade is a full action runtime. It's a secure execution environment for production agents with per-user authorization, vaulted credentials, structured audit logs, and hosted tool execution. It delivers a hosted catalog of over 8,000 pre-built agent-optimized MCP tools, designed for agent intent rather than... - Source: dev.to / 4 days ago

• Active players looked real until we asked which sessions counted

  Outside PostHog, the acquisition picture did not match. Real arrivals were mostly organic Google Search. In Search Console, we had not yet hit the first “30 clicks from Google Search in the past 28 days” milestone. We had only just started posting on dev.to, so that channel was not a material source either. - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

  ZeroDrop ships an MCP server that exposes exactly those three tools. Install it into any MCP-capable client:. - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• 🐘 Like... TypeScript for PHP? Yes. And it's not what you think

  In the previous parts of this series, we explored how PureScript acts as a quiet rewrite of the Web, offering a sanctuary of mathematical precision above JavaScript, and how its universal polymorphism allows it to target wildly different runtimes like Node.js, Erlang's BEAM, Chez Scheme, etc. - Source: dev.to / 7 days ago

• Anxious about my future as an Engineer: Rant and advice seeking

  Https://triplebyte.com/ used to be a dead easy way to get a bunch of offers from startups if you do well on triplebyte's testing. Have you tried that? Source: about 4 years ago

• What do you consider a “junior” level position? Clearly I’m wrong after trying to find my first SWE job

  Try triplebyte.com. That's how I got my first job as a self taught. Others wouldn't even give me a chance because I don't have a college degree or internship, let alone in CS. Source: about 4 years ago

• New recruit flunked training: unrealistic expectations, him lying or a bit of both?

  Next time have them sign up for a https://triplebyte.com account and do a python test, or leetcode or similar, and ask to see the results? Source: over 4 years ago

• Offered a front-end dev job but I fear I have imposter syndrome.

  I know, at least here in the States (don't know your local), that software eng hiring is super competitive. There are plenty of companies out there, and a lot of turned to remote or hybrid hiring. Even if you are happy with your current work, it's never a bad idea to shop around. Some platforms for job seeking that I've seen entry or mid-level engineers have success with are triplebyte.com and hired.com. Source: over 4 years ago
