I gotta say, reading this I have no idea what Render actually does or how it's different from AWS or Heroku. They say they've threaded the needle between the two to provide a new way of deploying infra, but what that is…who knows!

None of the smart contracts have done anything materially useful without huge risk of scams, rug pulls, or enabling criminal activity (e.g. mixers for money laundering.) After a decade, there are no examples of widely used smart contracts o

Ruby and rails’ ecosystems are also massive. Devise and ActiveAdmin are options for those two, though I haven’t used either in years. With much of the AI development happening in python and typescript, you might be right about those areas.

Rails has excellent defaults out of the box for security. You have to go out of your way to explicitly get around them, like with parameter whitelisting and SQL sanitizing. I don’t see as many CVEs, at least to my knowledge, with GitHub or

based on the OP's username, they seem to think this is some kind of insider trading. End-of-year trades are usually more about tax loss harvesting. Note that the shares are indirectly held via another vehicle provided by Iconiq capital
