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.

Does anyone use system-manager or some alternative?
This mostly minimal example seems legit, but I can't get it working.

Framework announces AMD, new Intel gen, 16“ laptop and more
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/shitbox/disko... this is my declarative partitioning scheme, I use mdraid, LUKS, LVM and btrfs. I also mirror my bootloader so if one drive dies I can still boot :)
Hardware raid is legacy :)

Learning NixOS as a Newbie
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos here's my configuration. I'm moving a lot of packages from my system config to my home config instead still. There's also something called devshells you can use with flakes, that'll give you packages in a one time disposable shell, which is quite great.

Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
Zellij instead of tmux (not necessarily better, but it's easier to use)
Xonsh instead of bash (because you already know Python, why learn a new horrible language?)
bat instead of cat (syntax highlights and other nice things)
exa instead of ls (just nicer)
neovim instead of vim (just better)
helix instead of neovim (just tested it, seems promising though)
nix instead of your normal package manager (it works on Mac, and essentially every Linux dist. And it's got superpowers with devshells and home-manager to bring your configuration with you everywhere)
rmtrash instead of rm (because you haven't configured btrfs snapshots yet)
starship instead of your current prompt (is fast and displays a lot of useful information in a compact way, very customizable)
mcfly instead of your current ctrl+r (search history in a nice ncurses tui)
dogdns instead of dig (nicer colors, doesn't display useless information)
amp, kakoune (more alternative text editors)
ripgrep instead of grep (it's just better yo)
htop instead of top (displays stuff nicer)
gitui/lazygit instead of git cli (at least for staging, nice with file, hunk and line staging when you have ADHD)
gron + ripgrep instead of jq when searching through JSON in the shell (so much easier)
keychain instead of ssh-agent (better cli imo)
Wrote this on the train with my phone by checking https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/common/defaul... for which packages I have installed myself :)

PipeWire: A year in review and a look ahead
https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/1c76775bbed80057cf54...
This is my pipewire config, does the job perfectly for me, tracking unstable.

Ask HN: Which tools are worth the time?
- Learning "modern" tools like ripgrep and fzf (There's a list here: https://github.com/ibraheemdev/modern-unix)
- Modern-Unix: collection of modern/faster/saner options to common Unix commands

My 2023 Terminal, Shell and Command-Line Toolbox
A lot of the tools in the post build on top of standard unix tools and are like for like (better) replacements. Many of them have been pulled from the Modern Unix repo on Github.

TIL you can do `cat -n file` to easily see line numbers when looking at a file
Plug to modern unix, a collection of utilities that modernize "standard" nix utilities (combination of faster, prettier, easier to use, as well as sensible defaults like highlighting and line numbers when not piped).

What are some things you can do in the terminal for entertainment?
I google something like "Modern Unix", open blogs, and try to find a "life-changing" tool that I haven't tried yet. Then I spend 1 day reading man how to apply this unreal tool to my current work environment setup. Ultimately, I'm sad because I wasted 1 day, but the process is fun enough to do it again tomorrow. This is like distro-hopping but tool-hopping. Now I have fzf, bat, helix, zoxide etc, but that's just the beginning of my tool-hopping :)

erdtree: A modern, multi-threaded, and ️🌈aesthetic️🌈 alternative to tree and du - v1.7.0 release ️
While this is not at all comprehensive of all the cool tools out there, there's this list which has a lot of modern alternatives to all of the modern Unix commands we know and love, most of which are written in Rust.

You might want to take some inspiration from https://github.com/ibraheemdev/modern-unix too! Neat website

LeanCreator - a lean, cross-platform, single file IDE for C/C++
Yeah, fine, since Go and Rust it is common to have this "one file app" that you put in $PATH and call it a day. Now, how many of those are not a single CLI utility (e.g. a replacement for top/ls/du or other UNIX utility), and are full blown GUI app? Not so many. None that I can think of from the top of my head, actually.
