Refinery

The power of serverless made easy via a drag-and-drop editor

Refinery launched on July 30, 2019 with 222 votes, #74 of 3,007 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 7 years on.

What it does

Refinery allows you to utilize all the power of AWS serverless via a drag-and-drop editor (no serverless knowledge required!). We abstract away all of the infrastructure work to allow you to ship services in a fraction of the time.

Refinery turns stranded power into sovereign AI compute, then connects every site as one virtual data center.

Refinery deploys sovereign AI infrastructure where power already exists, then connects every site as one virtual data center. The AI race now belongs to the usable megawatt. Why powered sites could beat the queue. One repeatable architecture from local electrons to shared intelligence. Start with electricity that is already generated, connected, and underused. Refinery is source-agnostic: stranded generation, constrained grid capacity, and powered industrial sites can all become inputs. Factory-built, liquid-cooled infrastructure turns that power into private AI compute. Workloads and proprietary data remain inside a sovereign operating boundary. Every deployment adds capacity to a shared…from refinery.io

    Hey HN, I'm Anurag, founder and CEO of Render, a cloud for application developers. We've just launched Render Workflows, a way to define durable tasks by decorating plain TypeScript or Python functions and running them on Render without operating queues, worker pools, retry logic, and state management. Code example below [1]. The use cases we have in mind include agent loops, ETL/data pipelines, billing flows, and other long-running jobs. The model is simple: mark an existing function as a Task, deploy the repo as a Workflow, then trigger runs from your application code or via our API.…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
