What it does

ddos-photon-cannon - Educational purposes only DDoS C&C and bot programs

DDoS Photon Cannon is a DDoS C&C server and bot program built for EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY . DDoS Photon Cannon is BARE BONES . It currently just sends HTTP GET requests to the target. main.go in the root directory provides the DDoS command and control server (a.k.a. C&C or ccs), /bot/bot.go provides the bot program. The bot makes HTTP GET requests to the C&C to receive orders (target and whether to attack or not). When the C&C is running, the orders it provides to the bots can be edited in the ccs.conf file directly. DDoS Photon Cannon is dedicated to the all the photon cannon rushers out there.from codeberg.org

    Hey HN! Previous CERN physicist turned hacker here. We've developed a way to make AI coding actually work by systematically identifying and fixing places where LLMs typically fail in full-stack development. Today we're launching as Lovable (previously gptengineer.app) since it's such a big change. The problem? AI writing code typically make small mistakes and then get stuck. Those who tried know the frustration. We fixed most of this by mapping out where LLMs fail in full-stack dev and engineering around those pitfalls with prompt chains. Thanks to this, in all comparisons I found with: v0,…

  • I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]: > If it's hardware or something that's not so easy to try out over the internet, find a different way to show how it actually works—a video, for example, or a detailed post with photos. Hopefully I did that? Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub: https://github.com/kentonv/lanparty Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!
