   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.

  I'm aiming to transcribe a piano composition for cello duet and in doing so am using a source file which was created in Musescore 2.3 or something, the file playback sounds fine on musescore.com but when I try to use the file (playback) on the musescore app (musescore 4), I cannot hear entire parts of the file (because the volume is somehow very low even though there is only one visible dynamic across both...

• Piano Sheet Music for Suteki da ne

  I was looking on musescore.com to listen to a really nice piano arrangement of Suteki da ne, but it seems to have been removed, and I did not save the sheet music to my computer! I was wondering if anyone has the sheet music saved somewhere. I really liked this one particular arrangement, and I was a fool not to save it. I don't remember who posted it on there originally.

• 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 / 2 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 / 4 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 / 6 days ago
