    > 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.

    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.

    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.

      People in my tarot group are skeptical that you get can good readings with LLMs but I’d say Copilot mostly comes to the same conclusions that I do. I am actually a little embarrassed that Copilot can interpret the I Ching primarily based on the names of the hexagrams and makes it look a lot easier than I make it look no matter if I use my pocket Wilhelm or my cheesy new age translation or my fashionable Bronze Age translation.

      "office lady"? Maybe you want to re-word that?

        What’s wrong with office lady? (Or milk man?)

      Wait, deterministic? I thought it shuffled random cards and then have LLM construct narrative out of that?

    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!

      Copperplate and cursive together is the new em dash

        What I notice is tailwind-derived CSS with a very dark background and a wide palette of bright color accents.

    > The cards observe it is Friday. They have not forgotten the Great Friday Deploy of 2021. They have not forgiven it either.

    It's... it's Thursday.

      Got the same, maybe it's looking at UTC time?
      • kyrofa 2 hours ago
        Heh, server time as opposed to client time at least.

      i would hold off on that deployment anyway, just in case

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

      I intend to :-)

    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

    Nice. This is Cool.

    Long, long ago, I knew a founder who would have us all sit down before going out to pitch Investors—the wife would read tarot cards to give us tips, and which Investors to Pitch.

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

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

    This is great and - something about programming has always felt adjacent to esotericism and the occult to me. Serial Experiments Lain is kind of in this vein too.

    Everything about this is great.

      Indeed very nice: the graphics, the colors, and of course the thoughtful texts. I like how the cards use poignant imagery without being sarcastic.

        > The deck acknowledges Receptionist. It would also like to acknowledge that it last spoke with a CISO asking about a very similar matter. The cards are not judgmental. They are, however, observant, and they find the timing of the role change worth a comment.

        It is a little bit sarcastic.

        • nine_k 3 hours ago
          But only in a very dry way, not in-your-face way.

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

    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.
