Can our office lady deploy a new feature on Friday? What if our CEO will do rebranding? Our intern is about to bugfix production, is it fine? Cards will answer. Totally silly webpage with reasonable, fully deterministic results. GHA, GCP, one silly idea and a lot of will to make it funny.

Everything about this is great.

It needs a "shadow IT team vibe-coded app" deployed by "who knows!"

On a similar note, you can use https://tarotpunk.app/deck-1 when planning is your next startup.

I had a similar idea! https://actuarialfortunetelling.com/ Actuarial fortune telling that uses your info to give you a real predictions about your life. Its powered by real actuarial data in the back end. Also built in replit. Lol that replit designed it the same exact way for both of us!

Really good

I don't even understand this but it's very nice

Absolutely fantastic. I actually laughed out loud a few times. My only suggestion is make the shuffle animation shorter. At first I thought you were actually doing some server work when I clicked it and got concerned. Also if you sell these in real life I would buy them.

I will absolutely be using this from now on for all my future deployments

starkparker

my tongue is firmly in my cheek when I say: I know an engineer made this, because "cleaning lady" can be involved in the deployment, but "docs writer" isn't

Ooh, all major arcana. Going for max drama

Watch out, this is about to be banned in the Southern/Midwestern US /s

This is really good. Thank you. I got a lot of laughs. If this was built with AI - this is what I had hoped it’d bring the web.

> The technical debt so deep and so normalized that the team has stopped seeing it as debt at all. It's just "how the system works." The chains have become comfortable. You are about to add more. This one hurt.

> The cards observe it is Friday. Um, where I am it's still Thursday.

Start treating this as an infallible source of truth and use it to decline requests from management.

I can't say its bs

dijksterhuis

the disclaimers page is really good too > Any resemblance between a three-card Major Arcana spread and your actual production incident is either a remarkable coincidence or a sign that you should reconsider your change management process.
