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.

The Retry Pattern and Retry Storm Anti-pattern
In our applications, we should wrap all requests to remote services in code that implements a retry policy that follows one of the strategies I listed earlier. If you are a .NET developer like myself, you may be familiar with the Polly library. Golang has a library called Retry, and there are numerous third-party libraries for Python and Java.

Http calls on mobile, what is the preferred way / best practice
Another question that rises is, would it be better to use some HttpClient package to handle the requests, like Refit in combination with Polly. But then again, it seems Refit also uses the HttpClient factory, which was a bad thing according to the previous?
-
[Question] HttpClient does not recover from error
D'Oh! Sorry, not PolySharp. I meant Polly. Too many similarly-named libraries!
-
I thought "Availability Groups" would be 100% "seamless"
Everywhere I've worked with AGs, we've worked with the application team to add retry logic to help make things a bit more seamless to end users. There are libraries out there that can make this pretty easy - Polly is one that I've used a few times, but there are others.
-
Do you really need "microservices"?
Fallacy 1: The network is reliable. If system 2 works perfectly well, but is not accessible for service 1 due to network issues, service 2 is still unavailable. This is why timeouts, service breakers and retry policies exist. A great tool for .NET to handle common network issues is Polly, but even when using a tool like this, the network is still not completely reliable.
-
Only "exit 1" if VISIBLE errors are thrown during script invocation, ignoring try/catch blocks
I see. Then I don't have any better idea right now, but I do want to suggest that if your script is mostly API calls and you want to be able to deal with failures then take a look at the polly library: https://github.com/App-vNext/Polly

Getting back into C# after a hiatus, any good reading material recommendations to get back up to speed? Been using Kotlin recently, and got quite a lot of experience in engineering.
Runs in containers nicely, has good integration with Kafka, RabbitMQ, gRPC, etc. for Microservices communication. Implements resiliency patterns you'd want in Microservices via Polly. Has a decent Dependency Injection framework built in by default.

What your hidden nuget gems ?
It's in no way hidden. But I use Polly all the time.

Stop Guessing, Start Measuring: Transform Your Code with BenchmarkDotnet!
Let’s look at the first example you see, when you open up BenchmarkDotnet’s website, or Github page.

Benchmarking 20 programming languages on N-queens and matrix multiplication
Or use BenchmarkDotNet which, among other things to get an accurate benchmark, does JIT warmup outside of measurement.
-
How to improve C# performance on matrix multiplication example?
You can also do proper statistically correct benchmarking by using - https://github.com/dotnet/BenchmarkDotNet. This will run warmup the jit, gauge the overheads, and run your function many times to give you proper data.

standard events vs MVVM Reference Messenger
Yes, weak references are slower than direct calls. How much slower? Heck if I know offhand. But it's usually pretty easy to set up something with Benchmark .NET and find out if it hurts your use case.

Mechanisms and Performance when querying data to SQLServer from C#
For this purpose we are going to use our beloved BenchmarkDotNet tool.

Object Mapping in .NET
To quantify and compare the performance of the object mapping strategies discussed earlier, we can employ BenchmarkDotNet.

Exploring Code Performance Testing in C# with BenchmarkDotNet
BenchmarkDotNet is a popular open-source library that, as stated in the repo's README.md, helps us to transform methods into benchmarks, track their performance, and share reproducible measurement experiments. Using BenchmarkDotNet feels similar to writing unit tests. It's very important to note that the library only works with console apps. Finally, we can visualize the results in the terminal where the benchmark ran or in user-friendly formats such as markdown, HTML and CSV. We will explore examples of there formats later in the article.

Is it okay to lock on a StringBuilder, on which StringBuilrer I perform some operations on?
However, obviously this prevents parallelism within the lock, so this only makes sense if you do some other expensive operation in the parallel loop and the string builder is only a small part of it. Performance wise, it may be better to concatenate the results together after the parallel operation, instead of locking inside the loop. You'll have to benchmark it to know for sure.

Iterator Benchmarks That Shocked With Unexpected Results!
We’re of course going to be using BenchmarkDotNet for our benchmarks, and you can find all of the code for these over at GitHub. To start, we need an entry point hook for our single Benchmark class that will be defining the permutations of scenarios that we’d like to run. This will be relatively basic as follows:
What are some alternatives?
MediatR - Simple, unambitious mediator implementation in .NET
App.Metrics - App Metrics is an open-source and cross-platform .NET library used to record and report metrics within an application.
Hangfire - An easy way to perform background job processing in .NET and .NET Core applications. No Windows Service or separate process required
CodeMaid - CodeMaid is an open source Visual Studio extension to cleanup and simplify our C#, C++, F#, VB, PHP, PowerShell, JSON, XAML, XML, ASP, HTML, CSS, LESS, SCSS, JavaScript and TypeScript coding.
FluentValidation - A popular .NET validation library for building strongly-typed validation rules.
Metrics-Net - The Metrics.NET library provides a way of instrumenting applications with custom metrics (timers, histograms, counters etc) that can be reported in various ways and can provide insights on what is happening inside a running application.
