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.

Who is the M3 Max for?
I’m a software developer as well and I ended up ordering a m3 max (still not received though). Main reasons against the m3 pro was the lesser number of performance cores compared to previous gens and slower memory bandwidth. Indeed, in this Xcode benchmark used by the Max Tech channel, the m3 pro compiled code slightly slower than the M1 Pro. Probably is a corner case but I think it’s worth to mention.

14" M2 Pro vs Air M2 for C++/Rust dev
I found only one reasonable benchmark comparing compilation speed for large projects here. Does anyone have experience with these 2 machines for backend development with compiled languages?

[MacBook Pro 16 M2 Max 32GB 1T] or [16” M2 pro 16GB 1T + iPad Pro M2 12.9”]
Here's repo you should look at when buying a MacBook. Difference between M2 Pro and M2 Max is ~15%.

Mac Mini m2 vs Mac Mini M2 Pro
I'm not sure about AI/ML dataset training performance, but this XcodeBenchmark performance appears to be very comparable between the M2 and M2 Pro.
- M2 Pro vs M1 - Any proper difference?
- M2 or M2 Pro Mac Mini for Development?
- Considering selling my MacBook Pro and just using my base model M2 MacBook Air. Has anybody with a m1 or m2 and 8gb of ram run into issues with iOS development?

It absolutely 100% can be true.
As an example: Windows Services for Linux 2 used a special init daemon to interact with the host OS.
That meant no systemd. That meant that the `systemctl` program wasn't there.
This baffled legions, armies, of wannabe sysadmins.

People on the whole have no idea how this stuff works, and they just copy magic incantations from StackOverflow to get stuff to happen. If that doesn't work, then this OS is broken. The end.
For these guys, WSL was broken.

He "fixed" it. Systemd now works in WSL2. All those guides for noobs now work. Everyone is happy.
In a world where tools like Flatpak and Snap are proliferating and it's driving deep divisions between Linux distros, if you think the average person struggling with Linux is going to use `ldd` to work out where the dependencies for something live, I'm afraid you are a deep guru who lives on a different plane of existence.
We now have widely-used packaging systems which simply embed an apps entire dependency tree into a package to avoid people having to work out the difference between `apt` and `rpm`. Thousands of terabytes of disk are being burned to make this stuff go away.
Yes, this is too hard. Way too hard.

One of the bugs where on the Docker side. As I have said, there have been several since release with a lot of impact period overlap. The latest and greatest is not resolved.

Ask HN: Best Docker open source alternative?
* Docker engine and not Docker Desktop in a VM. WSL2 works well after some configuration: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/6655#issuecomment-11...

After adding exclusions for the fsnotifier-wsl process and and both variants of the WSL distro path my disk performance was improved.
Adding the idea64.exe process also helped since I was trying to run IntelliJ against projects inside WSL.
