  • there’s some resource that says ‘change this part to do x’.

    Arguably, this is just a different type of script.

    I think the real separation is that while you might seek out a few different resources, or try a few alternatives to solve a problem, a “script-kiddie” is likely stuck if the first result in Google doesn’t solve the problem immediately.






  • Missing the LLM developer with billions of tokens to burn.

    • “Claude, please solve this puzzle so my Grandma can get her insulin”

  • Crowdsec does not provide DDOS protection in the same manner as Cloudflare. You can use crowdsec to block the traffic at your server, but it has already reached your server, and will be using up your ingress bandwidth regardless. So if you were DDOS’d, your site will go down.

    Cloudflare prevents the traffic ever reaching your server, while allowing the legitimate traffic through. They block it on their servers, which have much higher bandwidth than any VPS provider has.
