One month at @render just beat an entire quarter.

In March, we added more net new ARR than in all of Q1 2025.

4.8x YoY. 86% above our prior record.

Nearly all of this was word of mouth. Developers telling other developers.

That compounding is real.

Proud of this team.

Two friends of mine were laid off from Meta in the latest restructuring.

One had been there three years. The other for seven.

Job anxiety is ripping through the nation and policymakers are completely unprepared for the next few years.

So I built @jobanxiety, a site tracking 800+ jobs created by AI with research on upskilling and labor market trends on in-demand jobs in the AI era.

I see this as a continuation of my research at Brookings where I started my career as a economic analyst on the Workforce of the Future team.

Subscribe now to https://t.co/Wfah0E3rAf for the weekly updates on the latest on layoffs and hiring trends to escape the permanent underclass.

Comment any companies you want me to track next.

Built with @OpenAI, hosted on @render, video by @Replit, labor research by @claudeai.

Design moved quickly on this one.

A small but important detail: the badge does not incur a layout offset unless the buttons are stacked.

[Kim Hudaya @huedaya]

Whoever the engineer at @render who suggests "Last used" badge, needs to be given a raise.

Simple but smart!

@Tyriar Thank you for all your excellent work as a maintainer.

@giangtr0901 @_torontosociety Amazing work.

Velocity is everything for a startup, and wasting cycles on cloud infrastructure is a painful tax on iteration.

We're launching the Render Startup Program to fix that.

Get up to $100K in credits to ship, iterate, & scale faster on a platform built for modern AI and web apps.

@render using the deploy hook to trigger a deploy only if certain CI checks pass

[Eric Liu @ericliuus]

Four years since moving https://t.co/6FUTeKT80N to @render and it's been running without a blip

[Eric Liu @ericliuus]

Deployed Carbon Components Svelte on @render. Defining config rules (like header rewrites) in a render.yaml file is especially convenient for static, pre-rendered SPAs.
