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.

Writing a Simple Garbage Collector in C (2020)
Boehm GC is mentioned in the article: https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc
- Boehm-Demers-Weiser Garbage Collector
- Sound like some C stuff
-
Tricking the garbage collector with unsigned longs?
This stuff is all implementation dependent. The Boehm garbage collector has been wrestling with the compilers for years regarding these issues, see its development repo.

Any good resources to learn how to implement Automated Reference Counting in C99?
Any kind of automatic GC is going to be rare in C. The only automatic garbage collection that I am aware of is the BDW garbage collector abet that uses mark and sweep instead of reference counting https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc
- Why isn't there a GCed variant of C++ that'd be functionally like Java, but with C++'s syntax?
-
Small (EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH) project I made to add a reference counter GC to clang (specifically clang, will change) C
My dude have you heard of Boehm GC

I use NixOS for my home-server, and you should too!
As we covered in my last post, NixOS is a amazing Linux distribution for creating stable and declared environments. Now while this is amazing for a desktop setup, it is also perfect for a home-server or home-lab.

Tvix – A New Implementation of Nix
(Nix itself is slowly chugging along with Windows via MinGW - https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-on-windows/1113/108 and https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1320 , for example.)

Colima k8s nix setup
Nix is a cross-platform package manager. It uses the nix programming language. Nix and NixOs are often used in the same context, but while the first is a package manager, the latter is a linux distribution based on nix.

NixOs - Your portable dev enviroment
Today I want to talk to you about Nixos. What is it? Nixos is a declarative and reproducible OS, partly taking the words used on their own page. What does that mean?

Nix – A One Pager
Software developers often want to customize:
1. their home environments: for packages (some reach for brew on MacOS) and configurations (dotfiles, and some reach for stow).
2. their development shells: for build dependencies (compilers, SDKs, libraries), tools (LSP, linters, formatters, debuggers), and services (runtime, database). Some reach for devcontainers here.
3. or even their operating systems: for development, for CI, for deployment, or for personal use.
Nix provision all of the above in the same language, with Nixpkgs, NixOS, home-manager, and devShells such as https://devenv.sh/. What's more, Nix is (https://nixos.org/):
- reproducible: what works on your dev machine also works in CI in prod,
- declarative: you version control and review your configurations and infrastructure as code, at a reasonable level of abstraction,
- reliable: all changes are atomic with easy roll back.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.

Ask HN: Could Nix make crypto mining more efficient?
- it reduces bloat, because you can generate an environment or OS image with only the software needed to run a specific program or service
My guess is that a big efficiency gain would come from the second point, because you don't waste CPU on code that you don't use.
Does this make sense? Has anyone explored this?

Go + Hypermedia - A Learning Journey (Part 1)
1) Setting up the development environment - I currently use devcontainers for most things, but may also dig into nix -> isolated, portable, repeatable development environment 2) Exploring Echo - understand routing, requests, response, etc. 3) Incorporate Templ - integration with Echo, template composition, etc. 4) Integrating TailwindCSS - config for use with Echo/Templ, development cycle, deployment, etc. 5) Add in HTMX - endpoints, template structure, concepts, etc. 6) hyperscript for interactivity - client side interactivity
What are some alternatives?
