Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Why so many bots?
You can reduce the noise a lot by moving ssh to a non standard port. Security through obscurity isn't actually security, but it will reduce the number of attempts you receive. Another thing I like to do is put Endlessh on the standard port 22. That way as bots go by they will get stuck or at least slow down on that connection.

Is SSH secure enough?
SSH tarpit with Endlessh and for the hidden SSH: auth with both a key files (that need unlocking and is on the computer) AND an One Time Password on my phone.

"Failed password for root" SSH login hacking attemp?
If you change the ssh port, install https://github.com/skeeto/endlessh to slow down the attackers
-
ChatGPT doxes itself
Even this requires you to successfully guess the username and password correctly, and if it's just not the default most people won't bother brute forcing further. Sidenote: you can use endlessh on a computer and port forward port 22 to trap scanners that scan the entire internet for open ssh ports to exploit.

Ssh brute force attack with fail2ban.
The fun way is moving your ssh port somewhere else and installing endlessh to f the bots.

Keep it tight everyone! This is a day of sshd logs from a proxy server in China pinging my SSH server and trying every username imaginable. Does anyone have any tips to increase security?
But, as a prank to Chinese hackers, what I did on my system was to run endless ssh. It keeps the ssh client busy as it slowly sends the ssh banner. I modified the code to send strings like:
-
VPN to remotely access dockerized services
For hardening: I use lynis for some guidance, the VPS runs rkhunter, AIDE and other things nightly and mails me the reports, fail2ban manages the SSH port, having SSH on a custom port helps to keep things quiet. If you're into these kind of things, have a look at the Endlessh tarpit to learn about login attempts on port 22 on your machine - I found it eye-opening.
- Any app out there to trap port scanners?

AWS Serverless Diversity: Multi-Language Strategies for Optimal Solutions
Now, I’m not going to use C++ again; I left that chapter years ago, and it’s not going to happen. C++ isn’t memory safe and easy to use and would require extended time for developers to adapt. Rust is the new kid on the block, but I’ve heard mixed opinions about its developer experience, and there aren’t many libraries around it yet. LLRD is too new for my taste, but **Go** caught my attention.

How to use Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) for Go applications
Generative AI development has been democratised, thanks to powerful Machine Learning models (specifically Large Language Models such as Claude, Meta's LLama 2, etc.) being exposed by managed platforms/services as API calls. This frees developers from the infrastructure concerns and lets them focus on the core business problems. This also means that developers are free to use the programming language best suited for their solution. Python has typically been the go-to language when it comes to AI/ML solutions, but there is more flexibility in this area. In this post you will see how to leverage the Go programming language to use Vector Databases and techniques such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with langchaingo. If you are a Go developer who wants to how to build learn generative AI applications, you are in the right place!

OpenBSD 7.5 Released
When Go first shipped, it was already well-documented that the only stable ABI on some platforms was via dynamic libraries (such as libc) provided by said platforms. Go knowingly and deliberately ignored this on the assumption that they can get away with it. And then this happened:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16606
If that's not "getting burned", I don't know what is. "Trying to provide a nice feature" is an excuse, and it can be argued that it is a valid one, but nevertheless they knew that they were using an unstable ABI that could be pulled out from under them at any moment, and decided that it's worth the risk. I don't see what that has to do with "not being as broadly compatible as they had hoped", since it was all known well in advance.

Go's Error Handling Is Perfect
Sadly, I think that is indeed radically different from Go’s design. Go lacks anything like sum types, and proposals to add them to the language have revealed deep issues that have stalled any development. See https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644

Golang: out-of-box backpressure handling with gRPC, proven by a Grafana dashboard
I've been writing a lot about Go and gRPC lately:
What are some alternatives?
opencanary - Modular and decentralised honeypot
v - Simple, fast, safe, compiled language for developing maintainable software. Compiles itself in <1s with zero library dependencies. Supports automatic C => V translation. https://vlang.io
sshesame - An easy to set up and use SSH honeypot, a fake SSH server that lets anyone in and logs their activity
TinyGo - Go compiler for small places. Microcontrollers, WebAssembly (WASM/WASI), and command-line tools. Based on LLVM.
cowrie - Cowrie SSH/Telnet Honeypot https://cowrie.readthedocs.io
zig - General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.
docker-swag - Nginx webserver and reverse proxy with php support and a built-in Certbot (Let's Encrypt) client. It also contains fail2ban for intrusion prevention.
Nim - Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
