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.

How boring should your team be
> Also everything was new at one time.
Hah, this is a good point, but in my eyes lots of things that were new... never really grew up and were just deprecated and died.
For example, if someone based their setup on IronFunctions, they might have run into a bit of a painful situation, seeing as the project has been largely abandoned: https://github.com/iron-io/functions
Same for a database solution like Clusterpoint, the support for which just ended and you were left to migrate away to something else: https://github.com/clusterpoint
Ergo, I'd say that it's good for others to suffer the consequences of being trend setters and making wild bets on new and risky products and to just reap the benefits of their efforts later yourself, when things are safer. If a project has survived for a reasonably long time, it's a good indicator that it'll probably keep surviving in the future as well (there was a name for this, sadly can't recall what that was).

Show HN: Run Pi-hole on a local Kubernetes/K3s cluster
> I’m of the opinion that lambda-as-in-serverless is an evil.
Are there any other serverless solutions that you'd recommend?
Maybe a more open cloud function solution that could also be self-hosted, should the need arise?
As far as I know, OpenFaaS might serve that niche for some, though of course there will be no cloud solutions as large as Lambda available: https://github.com/openfaas/faas
Also there used to be IronFunctions, but those seem basically abandoned at this point: https://github.com/iron-io/functions

Later you can use any S3 compatible storage because the code I write will still work, but for testing purposes on my local machine, I will use LocalStack:

Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
To give this a slightly different spin:
--> "The best optimization is simply not spinning things up."
At least for local development and testing, as made possible by LocalStack (https://localstack.cloud), among other local testing solutions and emulators.
We've seen so many teams fall into the trap of "someone forgot to shut down dev resource X for a week and now we've racked up a $$$ bill on AWS".
What is everyone's strategy to avoid this kind of situation? Tools like `aws-nuke` (https://github.com/rebuy-de/aws-nuke) are awesome (!) to clean up unused resources, but frankly they should not be necessary in the first place.

Simple AWS: 20 Advanced Tips for Lambda
All of the above are great, but a bit limited for running things locally. LocalStack is better (though some features are paid). Try to use your IaC tool's capabilities, but if you hit a wall, definitely give LocalStack a shot.

Simplifying preview environments for everyone
For these reasons, I believe most developer environments should prioritize developer experience over fidelity. Tools like Containerized development environments and cloud emulators can strike the right balance and there’s no surprise that we see increased activity around devcontainers, and similar solutions.
