Hello fellow developer, it's been a challenge this week to collect some resources and news that were not Google I/O related. So many things got announced and so many basic things of the web - like search - seem to change right now forever. It's weird when you remember that Google succeeded by simplifying the search interaction and now we're in a place where creating and finding are the same thing. Makes you wonder what is next, or what to do with this power and all the tools on offer. Go and explore, is what i say…

Raph Terrier & Hazal Mestci

We sat down down with Hazal and Raph from Render.com's Developer Relations team talking about how a managed cloud platform handles the unpredictable compute demands of AI inference workloads — including their sub-second "Workflows" feature that sidesteps the cold-start problem. So if you want to know if agentic tooling really spells the end of DevOps, go and have a look.
