A bit ingenious to say we do nothing when you have CloudFlare in front of your servers. Cloudflare by itself can automatically detect and handle DDoS without explicitly activating the Under Attack mode.
Also Java jar files give you the same benefit.

- RedShift1 2y agoYou can compile a jar to include all dependencies (like statically compiling C code), then you can just run `java -jar myprogram.jar` and it will work as long as the Java runtime is the same major version or newer than the version you compiled for.

- worddepress 2y agoIt is ingenious to turn a mild attack into a 100+ point HN submission!
