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.

Critical New 0-day Vulnerability in Popular Log4j Library - List of applications
Signald : https://gitlab.com/signald/signald/-/issues/259
- signald - A daemon that facilitates communication via Signal Private Messenger. Unofficial, unapproved, and not nearly as secure as the real Signal clients.

Signald: Unofficial Daemon for Interacting with Signal
This is neat.
I looked at the install instructions ("from source") and i while there were instructions, there was no download link for the tarball or even the git repository.
You have to click on the "gitlab" widget that shows the number of stars on the start page to get to the gitlab repository at https://gitlab.com/signald/signald

starting a native adaptive Linux client for Signal
I've been using Signald for the last few months and then bridging it to Matrix. I think building exactly the same thing based off the Rust client is the most compelling option (and probably something I'd be interested in working on as well!). Given that a double-puppeted Signal account can be used with Matrix today, it'd be a shame to invest in Signal-specific UI. There are multiple "nearly there" Matrix clients that can work on the pinephone and others. You could even bridge libpurple to Matrix if you're into that ecosystem.

Signal API
As Signal does not have a real API, it uses signald for communication with Signals server, which is also open source: https://gitlab.com/signald/signald

Is Elon Musk right about Signal? I need your Help!
It looks like you just need a client that uses https://gitlab.com/signald/signald, and the matrix-signal bridge /u/anakinfredo posted is one of them.

An implementation of the Signal client protocol in Rust
When I wanted to use Signal on my PinePhone and realized how restrictive Signal was in a lot of ways I started looking at Matrix. Matrix feels a lot more like what chat "should" be, if it weren't for reality - there's an existing Java client (https://gitlab.com/signald/signald) that I've used for a few weeks and been impressed with. Now I bridge my Signal account to Matrix as the first step towards migrating away.

How to choose the right type of database
Apache Druid: Focused on real-time analytics and interactive queries on large datasets. Druid is well-suited for high-performance applications in user-facing analytics, network monitoring, and business intelligence.

Choosing Between a Streaming Database and a Stream Processing Framework in Python
Online analytical processing (OLAP) databases like Apache Druid, Apache Pinot, and ClickHouse shine in addressing user-initiated analytical queries. You might write a query to analyze historical data to find the most-clicked products over the past month efficiently using OLAP databases. When contrasting with streaming databases, they may not be optimized for incremental computation, leading to challenges in maintaining the freshness of results. The query in the streaming database focuses on recent data, making it suitable for continuous monitoring. Using streaming databases, you can run queries like finding the top 10 sold products where the “top 10 product list” might change in real-time.

Show HN: The simplest tiny analytics tool – storywise
https://github.com/apache/druid
It's always a question of tradeoffs.
The awesome-selfhosted project has a nice list of open-source analytics projects. It's really good inspiration to dig into these projects and find out about the technology choices that other open-source tools in the space have made.

Analysing Github Stars - Extracting and analyzing data from Github using Apache NiFi®, Apache Kafka® and Apache Druid®
Spencer Kimball (now CEO at CockroachDB) wrote an interesting article on this topic in 2021 where they created spencerkimball/stargazers based on a Python script. So I started thinking: could I create a data pipeline using Nifi and Kafka (two OSS tools often used with Druid) to get the API data into Druid - and then use SQL to do the analytics? The answer was yes! And I have documented the outcome below. Here’s my analytical pipeline for Github stars data using Nifi, Kafka and Druid.

Apache Druid® - an enterprise architect's overview
Apache Druid is part of the modern data architecture. It uses a special data format designed for analytical workloads, using extreme parallelisation to get data in and get data out. A shared-nothing, microservices architecture helps you to build highly-available, extreme scale analytics features into your applications.

When you should use columnar databases and not Postgres, MySQL, or MongoDB
But then you realize there are other databases out there focused specifically on analytical use cases with lots of data and complex queries. Newcomers like ClickHouse, Pinot, and Druid (all open source) respond to a new class of problem: The need to develop applications using endpoints published on analytical queries that were previously confined only to the data warehouse and BI tools.

Druids by Datadog
Datadog's product is a bit too close to Apache Druid to have named their design system so similarly.
From https://druid.apache.org/ :
> Druid unlocks new types of queries and workflows for clickstream, APM, supply chain, network telemetry, digital marketing, risk/fraud, and many other types of data. Druid is purpose built for rapid, ad-hoc queries on both real-time and historical data.

Mom at 54 is thinking about coding and a complete career shift. Thoughts?
Maybe rare for someone to be seeking their first coding job at that age. But plenty of us are in our 50s or older and still coding up a storm. And not necessarily ancient tech or anything. My current project exposes analytics data from Apache Druid and Cassandra via Go microservices hosted in K8s.
