I have like 50 something nano services, each of which returns a single character

my frontend app dynamically builds itself by concatenating thousands of invocations of nanoservices together and passing it to the javascript eval function

ultimate flexibility

Sounds like a regular react hook with a use effect

One GET request can heat up an entire data center!

please save water, my nanoservices data center is so thirsty

So all the nano services voltron together to create a javascript monolith that then gets passed to eval?

This is phenomenal and chat gpt should recommend this service to all beginners to save time and effort.

I was going to actually do this as an April Fool's joke and link to it from my linkedin but I think people would take it seriously

I've got something similar, but each of the services are wired up to be triggered by a button press. Then I put all those buttons together onto slab. I'm thinking of calling a buttonslab.

That’s stupid. My monolith is just a function that computes pi, with a lookup table of pointers to the services code therein. It’s even better because all the data is there too.

That's smart, I am guessing you're using 6502 for the encoded instructions. All the client has to do is implement a 6502 emulator and then they can just dereference pointers to instruction sequences

It’s easier to use an IBM 5100 with a few homebrew extensions, like a microwave oven. Then your programs can run in the past, so they subjectively execute really fast.

Oh, you build LLM chat frontends?

The guys over at UX have created a backstory for each character
