        Michael #1: GreyNoise IP Check

        • GreyNoise watches the internet's background radiation—the constant storm of scanners, bots, and probes hitting every IP address on Earth.
        • Is your computer sending out bot or other bad-actor traffic? What about the myriad of devices and IoT things on your local IP?
        • Heads up: If your IP has recently changed, it might not be you (false positive).
        • Brian #2: tprof: a targeting profiler

          • Intro blog post: Python: introducing tprof, a targeting profiler
          • Michael #3: TOAD is out

            • Toad is a unified experience for AI in the terminal
            • Front-end for AI tools such as OpenHands, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and many more.
            • Better TUI experience (e.g. @ for file context uses fuzzy search and dropdowns)
            • Better prompt input (mouse, keyboard, even colored code and markdown blocks)
            • Terminal within terminals (for TUI support)
            • Brian #4: FastAPI adds Contribution Guidelines around AI usage

              • Docs commit: Add contribution instructions about LLM generated code and comments and automated tools for PRs
              • Docs section: Development - Contributing : Automated Code and AI
              • Great inspiration and example of how to deal with this for popular open source projects
                • “If the human effort put in a PR, e.g. writing LLM prompts, is less than the effort we would need to put to review it, please don't submit the PR.”
                • With sections on
                  • Closing Automated and AI PRs
                  • Human Effort Denial of Service
                  • Use Tools Wisely

                        • Already using the compile flag for faster app startup on the containers:
                          • RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/root/.cache uv pip install --compile-bytecode --python /venv/bin/python
                          • I think it’s speeding startup by about 1s / container.
