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.

GNOME’s self-serving nature (and why they’re right).
Eh, someone actually has a fork of GTK3 with that feature, and I believe someone pointed that out in the issue tracker already, but then the devs were just like "no PR/MR, doesn't exist from our perspective". Granted the person who made the patch does say in the fork's readme that they don't expect it to be in an acceptable form for the GTK devs anyway.

gtk file picker icon view patch for void?
New user here. I searched online for void package template for gtk patched with this applied https://github.com/Dudemanguy/gtk , but I didn't find anything particular. If I understand correctly, it's not just a patch applied to main gtk source is it? Is there any chance void template for this exists somewhere online?

qutebrowser v2.0.0 released (with better adblocker)!
I've been using this (patched variant of gtk)[https://github.com/Dudemanguy/gtk], which is okay, but it seems a bit overkill and possibly unwise to use a non-official GTK just for image previews. Writing this, I realize that going the KDE route may indeed be a much cleaner solution.

HN comments on gnome
Someone made a fork specifically to fix this one issue here, there's even an AUR package for it, and apparently it's still being maintained (said AUR package was last updated two days ago).

Element – All-in-one secure chat app for teams, friends and organisations
Someone created a fix for this 3 years ago. The Gnome maintainers refuse to add it for whatever reason.

Nix: The Breaking Point
I don't think so. The article is probably intended for the Nix community, so the author doesn't need to convince HN that something is going on. If as an outsider you are interested then you need to look into it yourself, the community has no obligation to make their internal conflicts legible to the outside world.
As an outsider myself, it certainly looks like something is going on as more than 20 Nixpkg maintainers left in a week: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=label%3A%228.has%3...

NixOS Is Not Reproducible
Yes, Nix doesn't actually ensure that the builds are deterministic. In fact it works just fine if they aren't. There are packages in nixpkgs that aren't reproducible: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aiss...

The xz attack shell script
I'm not familiar with Bazel, but Nix in it's current form wouldn't have solved this attack. First of all, the standard mkDerivation function calls the same configure; make; make install process that made this attack possible. Nixpkgs regularly pulls in external resources (fetchUrl and friends) that are equally vulnerable to a poisoned release tarball. Checkout the comment on the current xz entry in nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/comp...

Debian Git Monorepo
NixOS uses a monorepo and I think everyone's love it.
I love being able to easily grep through all the packages source code and there's regularly PRs that harmonizes conventions across many packages.
Nixpkgs doesn't include the packaged software source code, so it's a lot more practical than what Debian is doing.

From xz to ibus: more questionable tarballs
In this specific case, nix uses fetchFromGitHub to download the source archive, which are generated by GitHub for the specified revision[1]. Arch seems to just download the tarball from the releases page[2].
