Has a corporate engineering blog made you want to join the company?


Dan Luu wrote this fascinating post a while back (https://danluu.com/corp-eng-blogs/), proposing, "Companies compete relatively directly when recruiting, so being more compelling relative to another company has value to them; replicating the playbook Cloudflare or Segment has used with their engineering 'brands' would be a significant recruiting advantage."

Have you applied to work at a company after reading its engineering blog?

Both are good https://shopify.engineering/topics/infrastructure https://www.uber.com/nl/blog/amsterdam/engineering/

I do believe that there is a gap for a dedicated medium wioth life long learning education with deep focus and a wide range.

´The validation of value principle´ for social acceptance should be something to look forward to.

The influencer economy does not make someone a talented person. prrof of Actions do.

It's not a good reflection of the actual company practices. I joined ThoughtWorks as a Dev because of their engineering books but the reality is that you work with shitty Devs on most projects
