Is the joke that when I follow the link I'm not rickrolled?
moqizhengz•14h ago
This is bad already when we dont get rickrolled on the first click
Incipient•14h ago
No, that's a feature of microservices.

...which is a separate joke.

jumploops•15h ago
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)

where are the microservices?
coldfoundry•14h ago
Is 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

badgersnake•14h ago
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

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.
