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 issue of recursive module calls in declarative infrastructure-as-code
I thought it was a good idea, but Bicep did not agree. I have submitted a proposal to the Bicep team for how this can be allowed. Vote for this issue if you agree!

Rethinking Infrastructure as Code from Scratch
Bicep has limitations which makes it non-declarative even though it is marketed as declarative: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manag...
MSFT is trying to add features to make this better, but it is not in production yet: https://github.com/Azure/bicep/issues/10460
Additionally, Bicep does not support interacting with Azure Active Directory: https://github.com/Azure/bicep/issues/7724
So it really is not very useful. Terraform is better in almost every single conceivable way.

Create your first Azure Bicep Template
Since its launch Bicep has become popular within the IT community. You can find blog posts, tweets, conference sessions, and plenty of interaction on the official Bicep GitHub space. Bicep became production ready at v0.3. It is supported by Microsoft Support Plans.

Bicep Extension Finally Arrives in Visual Studio! Here's What You Need to Know
Bicep, the open source project used by Visual Studio Code to extend its capabilities, has finally arrived in Visual Studio, enabling users of Microsoft’s flagship IDE to use some of Bicep’s most popular features in the same program they have been using since they were introduced to it — in other words, Visual Studio itself.

QEMU Version 9.0.0 Released
My most-wanted QEMU feature: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/a2260983c6553
Using `gic-version=3` on macOS you can now use more than 8 cores on ARM chips.

Autoconf makes me think we stopped evolving too soon
A better solution is just to write a plain ass shell script that tests if various C snippets compile.
https://github.com/oilshell/oil/blob/master/configure
https://github.com/oilshell/oil/blob/master/build/detect-pwe...
Not an unholy mix of m4, shell, and C, all in the same file.
---
These are the same style as a the configure scripts that Fabrice Bellard wrote for tcc and QEMU.
They are plain ass shell scripts, because he actually understands the code he writes.
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/configure
https://github.com/TinyCC/tinycc/blob/mob/configure
OCaml’s configure script is also “normal”.
You don’t have to copy and paste thousands of lines of GNU stuff that you don’t understand.

Revng translates (i386, x86-64, MIPS, ARM, AArch64, s390x) binaries to LLVM IR
> architectural registers are always updated
In tiny code, the guest registers (global TCG variables) are stored in the host's registers until you either call an helper which can access the CPU state or you return (`git grep la_global_sync`). This is the reason why QEMU is not so terribly slow.
But after a check, this also happens when you access the guest memory address space! https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/include/tcg/tcg-opc... (TCG_OPF_SIDE_EFFECTS is what matters)
But still, in the end, it's the same problem. What QEMU does, can be done in LLVM too. You could probably be more efficient in LLVM by using the exception handling mechanism (invoke and friends) to only serialize back to memory when there's an actual exception, at the cost of higher register pressure. More or less what we do here: https://rev.ng/downloads/bar-2019-paper.pdf

Multipass: Ubuntu Virtual Machines Made Easy
Some of these tools include Oracle VM VirtualBox (that I've used since before the acquisition of Sun Microsystems by Oracle), VMWare Workstation Player, and QEMU, but last year, I found out about Multipass.

Libsodium: A modern, portable, easy to use crypto library
For C/C++ projects that use meson as the build system, there is an excellent way to manage dependencies:
https://mesonbuild.com/Wrapdb-projects.html
https://mesonbuild.com/Wrap-dependency-system-manual.html
meson will download and build the libraries automatically and give you a variable which you pass as a regular dependency into the built target:
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/tree/005ad32358f12fe9313a4a0191...
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/tree/main/subprojects
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/37457412b3212463c5...
Or, if you're using proper operating systems, they're managed by the usual package manager, just like everything else.

Top 6 Virtual Machine Software in 2023
For all the users of the Linux platform, QEMU is the VM that you should go for. This software comes without any price tag and works as an emulator of various machines with utmost ease and completion; the software uses dynamic translations to emulate hardware peripherals and enhances its overall performance. If you are using QEMU as a virtualizer, then it will function exactly like the host system (provided you have the right set of hardware).

UTM for Developers
In this tutorial, we set up macOS and Windows virtual machines on UTM, a macOS application that provides a GUI wrapper for QEMU, a powerful open-source emulator and virtualizer. UTM allows you to easily manage and run virtual machines without memorizing complex commands. It also has special handling for macOS, making it simpler to install compared to other virtual machine software.
