Built a rickroll machine that rickrolls you with microservices
github.comIs the joke this isn’t microservices and literally just an expressjs api that sends the user to youtube? Why the copy paste for each of the route handlers? Why not just a single endpoint?
I’m so confused
ah you're welcome, confusing you was the goal
You don’t need microservices for a bad joke. They’re already a bad joke.
But now it can be a bad joke at scale
Is the joke that when I follow the link I'm not rickrolled?
This is bad already when we dont get rickrolled on the first click
No, that's a feature of microservices.
...which is a separate joke.
Hah! You just gave me the idea to make[0] a rickroll app that pretends to scan your IP but actually just rickrolls you.
(Shameless plug: I vibe-coded the vibecoding tool)
you can sell this to hollywood for the next blockbuster hacker film
where are the microservices?
The real rickrolling is to get everyone here on HN to read the lyrics.
Happy to realize I have lived that long without having heard of rickrolling.
I need the Rust implementation
RaaS, nice one
My pleasure
