Hacker News on a train station-style flip board

The top 20 stories on Hacker News, rendered on a split-flap departures board. Rank, points and headline on real mechanical flaps, refreshed by a scheduled cloud function. A remix of the Quickish flipboard. Although the page itself is more just fun to have made and look at (I like the flip sound), the fun part is how I made it to verify the (and I hate to say it) vibe host service I've been working on.
