   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.

   👍 Pros:    Free

• 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

• Where's the best place to be if looking for a coding job?

  I used this site last time I got a new job https://triplebyte.com/. Source: almost 5 years ago

• Your first Fitz LiveViews component, twice: SSR and WASM from one source

  In part 1 I made the pitch: real-time UI in one language, no JavaScript build. Now let's build something and ship it two ways from the same source. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago

• My Comment-Reply Queue Draft One Reply to a Thread and It Went Deaf to Every Follow-Up After That

  Def pending(): try: drafted_text = open(DRAFTS, encoding="utf-8").read() except FileNotFoundError: drafted_text = "" drafted_codes = set(re.findall(r"^## (\S+)", drafted_text, re.M)) out = [] for a in api(f"/articles?username={ME}&per_page=100"): if not a["comments_count"]: continue for c in api(f"/comments?a_id={a['id']}"): if not... - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• Domain Search to Render: How the web works behind the scenes

  To think that all of this happens under the hood when I’m just trying to access YouTube to listen to my favorite music playlists to go through the day is insane! It all happens so quickly… to think that all eleven of these steps occur instantly when I was first entering a website like https://dev.to, for instance, is mind-blowing. - Source: dev.to / 6 days ago

• Enjoy the Bubble While It Lasts: The Secret Behind Your AI Bill

  And keep an exit. This is the argument I made about small models from a different angle: the same task that costs $14,000/month at frontier scale often costs approximately nothing on a 4B model running on your own hardware. Not for everything - for the long tail of focused, repetitive work that makes up most of what we actually automate. Knowing which of your workflows would survive a 10x price increase is cheap... - Source: dev.to / 10 days ago
