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.

How do I know if I am using the M1 version of a program and not the Intel version?
It's a free, open-source utility that someone has generously released to the public. I find it useful. I often install and run lots of different apps and open-source things, and sometimes it's convenient to be able to just look at an icon in the menu bar to confirm whether something is running under Rosetta or not. Other people find it useful too. Just because you don't have a use for it, doesn't mean nobody else in the world does either.

Ask HN: How are you dealing with the M1/ARM migration?
> Curious to see what, if anything, is running under translation
There's a useful app called Silicon Info on Github (https://github.com/billycastelli/Silicon-Info) and also on the Mac App Store.
It adds a menu bar icon that switches according to the currently-focused app's architecture.

Welcome new Apple Silicon users! Check out my (tiny) menu bar app that displays if a running application is optimized for ARM
Of course, it is free and open source (check out the code on Github!).

Common Questions about Apple Silicon - Does It ARM
If you already own an Apple Silicon Mac and want to know which apps are running natively as opposed to via Rosetta 2 translation, you can download Silicon Info and see a report of the apps

Intel or Apple. Discover it directly using your MenuBar
I'm not sure OP is the developer, but moreso someone trying to just share.. mac app news. I feel the picture and description is self explanatory if you have one, but the full github release is here: https://github.com/billycastelli/Silicon-Info

Deploy to Google AppEngine with GitHubActions
This action runs using Node 16. If you are using self-hosted GitHub Actions runners, you must use runner version 2.285.0 or newer.

Ensuring Your E2E Tests Run On Every Code Push
This is the OS and version used for the virtual environment in which run our tests. I recommend always using a specific version, such as the latest stable version, rather than latest, which is risky because you may then suddenly start to see test failures caused by a version update that has nothing to do with your tests. See virtual-enviroments for the latest stable version.

How would you suggest running unit tests within containers in a CI AKS based considering docker.sock isnโt available anymore?
This, I setup Azure DevOps pipeline that clones this: https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments Runs it in Linux servers, copies VHD into Storage Account, creates an image from it and makes it new image for Azure Scale Set. Runs every Monday Morning on timer.

Ask HN: How are you dealing with the M1/ARM migration?
I'm in a similar boat - love the performance/battery of my M1 MacBook Air, but the ecosystem is just too messy at the moment for me. I have a few tools I need to use that haven't yet been making official Apple Silicon releases due to GitHub actions not supporting Apple Silicon fully yet. The workaround involves maintaining two versions of homebrew, one for ARM and one for x86-64, and then being super careful to make sure you don't forget if you're working in an environment that's ARM and one that's X86. It's too much of a pain to keep straight for me (I admit it - I lack patience and am forgetful, so this is a bit of a "me" problem versus a tech problem).
My solution was to give up using my M1 mac for development work. It sits on a desk as my email and music machine, and I moved all my dev work to an x86 Linux laptop. I'll probably drift back to my mac if the tools I need start to properly support Apple Silicon without hacky workarounds, but until GitHub actions supports it and people start doing official releases through that mechanism, I'm kinda stuck.
It is interesting how much impact GitHub has had by not having Apple Silicon support. Just look at the ticket for this issue to see the surprisingly long list of projects that are affected. (See: https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/2187)

Any tool that can help me convert Azure ADO Pipelines to GitHub Actions YAML?
I'm not disputing your claim that it could be true as I say, it makes sense, there is even some evidence they are getting ready for feature parity as I said in my comment with the hosted agent builds but I am arguing the point with my "what aboutism" as it isn't clear.

Czkawka 4.1.0 - Fast duplicate finder, with finding invalid extensions, faster previews, builtin icons and a lot of fixes
Also Ubuntu 22.04 is not currently available on Github so I can't use CI for now - https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/5428

Emacs 28.1's been cut
As for M1 support, Iโm still waiting for GitHub to add M1-based GitHub Actions runners (issue).

Getting started with GitHub Actions and workflows
GitHub provides hosted runners which can run your workflow in different virtual environments. The "ubuntu-latest" environment already contains a recent version of Node.js which is ideal for testing JavaScript applications.

AzurePipeline failing due to: The reference assemblies for .NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1 were not found
As mentioned in this GitHub issue, the issue seems to affect only windows-2022 image. You can use the following script to install .NETFramework 4.6.1 to the agent.
