Most Kafka “healthcare interoperability” examples are theoretical or focused on US/EU EHRs. I wanted to share a concrete case from a mid‑size hospital in Venezuela where we used Kafka as the event backbone between HIS, LIS and billing systems.

A client scrolls a product page on Android and the page hitches, but they blame the phone, the network, or "Chrome is slow." In July 2026 the Chromium team published how they reduced the frequency of janky scrolls in Chrome on Android by about 48% be...

The problem with "just build your own API"
If you've ever wanted a personal dataset job listings, product prices, whatever you know the real cost isn't the idea, it's the pipeline. Scraping. Cleaning. Storage. Refreshing on a schedule. Serving it o...

I'm tired of seeing people refer to QA as simply "the person who tests." And honestly, it's exhausting. As a tester or QA engineer, if you prefer I feel the need to clear a few things up.
QA is not a person. It's an entire discipline.

Building a contact form API is straightforward. Building one that is secure, reliable, and ready for production is a different challenge. Once your API is exposed to the internet, it will receive requests from real users, automated bots, and sometime...
When Everything Looked Fine
Modern cloud systems are built to survive failure.
Applications run across multiple Availability Zones. Containers restart automatically. Serverless functions scale on demand. Databases replicate data continuously. Enti...
Yesterday, I took the time to go through 31 pages of my own notes on NLP, notes I had carefully created during an AI engineering course. However, I found that I understood very little of it.
It felt odd and disheartening to have written something d...
I built two systems that both needed event tracking.
I used PostgreSQL in one and MongoDB in the other.
Here's exactly why — and what I learned from doing both.

Every developer has a version of this story.
You're about to open a pull request. The code works. The tests pass. Everything looks good.
Then you do one final scan and find this:
console.log"HERE";
console.log"user:", user;
console.log"final:", re...
Hi dev.to
I’m building SoapJS, a TypeScript framework focused on helping developers create backend applications using Clean Architecture principles with less boilerplate and clearer structure.
It is still pre-1.0, so the API may change, but the co...
Documentation is something every developer knows is important, yet it's often the last thing we want to work on after finishing a project.
