The race is to get the longest shortened URL
Re: The World's Longest URL “Shortener”
#26How about a version of this that just uses a’s (or A’s), based on the number of a’s in the URL?

#28How does this work?
The source code (JavaScript) is quite readable. This seems to be the backing store: https://www.jsonstore.io/9cfa993cd55704f2254949dc21a5f3a7a63... With the ability to get a specific key from this style of URL: https://www.jsonstore.io/9cfa993cd55704f2254949dc21a5f3a7a63... And post to it to set a value. There's no security though - anyone can overwrite any URL - e.g. in the console on that page: pushJSON(endpoint +…
Looks like there's a limit to the number of urls shortened... it's throwing out the old ones. Womp, womp. :P

#30Hey All, OP here, contrary to popular belief I did not make this :) I saw it on GitHub when I noticed someone who starred the Prefect repo had the username `programming`, clicked their profile and saw this: https://github.com/programming/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... and just thought it was hilarious. Knew you all would get a kick out of it!
The way GitHub displays it [1] is equally great too.
