    I've frequently found myself using [nvitop](https://github.com/XuehaiPan/nvitop) to diagnose GPU/CPU contention issues. The two best things about it are: - It's easy to install if I can access pip in the container - It makes a compelling screenshot (which helps me communicate with coworkers.) With those two lessons in mind: Here is Sping! Purpose: Help observe and diagnose latency issues at layer 4+ (TCP/HTTP/HTTPS) Two good things about it: - It's easy to install if you have pip.

    A fast SOCKS5 proxy that tunnels your traffic through what looks like normal SMTP email, bypassing Deep Packet Inspection firewalls. How it works: - Client runs a local SOCKS5 proxy (127.0.0.1:1080) - Traffic is sent to server disguised as SMTP (EHLO, STARTTLS, AUTH) - DPI sees legitimate email session, not a VPN/proxy Features: - One-liner install on any Linux VPS - Multi-user with per-user secrets and IP whitelists - Auto-generated client packages (just double-click to run) - Auto-reconnect on connection loss - Works with any app that supports SOCKS5 Tech: Python/asyncio, TLS…

    I wrote this tool during an internship at Narf Industries in 2023. It's a REPL that allows for quickly developing, testing, and fuzzing for HTTP request smuggling attack payloads. I started the internship having never worked with web servers, and have now found over 100 HTTP implementation bugs. I attribute this mostly to the ease of experimentation in the Garden. REPL-oriented fuzzing is just a really good interface for finding parsing bugs. It's pretty neat to able to run a differential fuzzer, categorize and display all the discovered discrepancies, then let a human pick through them and…

    I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.

    This is a proof of concept utility which allows you to expose local services to the internet at large: https://github.com/skx/tunneller In short it is a simple ngrok alternative, which you can self-host. Because it is a proof of concept it hasn't been tested extensively, but it seems like it will solve my immediate-needs. Of course it needs test, and structure added. But feedback can't hurt :)

    TL;DR: I built a lightweight, self-hosted HTTP tunnel that turns localhost into a public HTTPS URL. No paid plans, no secret black boxes. Just one Go binary, Caddy with wildcard TLS, and a $0/month Oracle Cloud VM. GitHub repo Why I Built It My development workflow lives mostly on a free Oracle Clou

    I built a chained VPN lab to support multi-user traffic isolation using only raw Linux tools. Each user gets: - A WireGuard tunnel - A dedicated namespace (wg-$user) bridged via veth - NAT and routing table override - A second namespace (ovpn-$user) running OpenVPN - Final egress through tun1 The entire setup is controlled with bash scripts and PostgreSQL — no Docker, no containers, no Python, just raw netns, iptables, ip rule and shell. Built for GDPR-compliant VPN infra with real isolation per collaborator. Code and README:…

    Hi HN! I built OpenGem, an open-source, load-balanced proxy for the Gemini API that requires absolutely no paid API keys. GitHub: https://github.com/arifozgun/OpenGem The Context: Like many developers, I was constantly hitting "429 Quota Exceeded" errors while building AI agents and processing large payloads on free tiers. I wanted to build freely without calculating API costs for every test request. How it works: I reverse-engineered the official Gemini CLI authentication to get standard API access. However, a single free Google account quota depletes quickly. To solve…

    Highlighted Features * Auto local address selection: find a port available and start listening to it, so the -local flag doesn’t need to be given every time you run the app. * Create multiple tunnels using a single ssh connection: multiple tunnels can be established using a single connection to a ssh server by specifying different -remote flags. * Aliases: save your tunnel settings under an alias, so it can be reused later. * Leverage the SSH Config File: use some options (e.g. user name, identity key and port), specified in $HOME/.ssh/config whenever possible, so there is no need…
