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.

Cargo Binstall 1.0.0 release
Unfortunately not really usable in production (for me) until https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall/issues/1 is fixed :( Really much looking forward to it though, as I think it's a great addition to the Rust ecosystem!

Oxidise your Infrastructure using Shuttle.rs
Oh looks like cargo-binstall is currently broken (https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall/issues/1094)

Ludusavi can now back up your game saves to the cloud and detect Lutris saves
Unfortunately, I ended up running into an issue with the zip support, but I'll come back to it once this is fixed: https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall/issues/1080

Strange lifetime error: Requires to be `'static`
I've encountered a strange lifetime error when developing new features in cargo-binstall:
-
AMDGPU_TOP - tool to show AMDGPU usage
Once you feel like releasing it, could you please add binstall support?
-
[rcargo] quick tool for faster crate building on remote workstations
I think in a similar vein there is cargo-binstall that is a cargo install alternative that attempts to use pre-built binary artifacts when possible
-
Faster Apple Builds with the lld Linker
I hope ld64 and lld add supports for plugin-opt I'm trying to enable cross-lang-lto on MacOS but failed due to -plugin-opt not supported.
-
Install a CLI in a project (not globally)
You can use cargo-binstall --install-path to install binaries to custom locations.
-
Release engineering is exhausting so here's cargo-dist
If you happen to install a lot of things with cargo, check out cargo-binstall: https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall
It'll fetch the binary release from the repo so you don't have to compile it yourself.

Thoughts about updating a rust cli via a sub command for improved dev experience
I'd recommend to use cargo-binstall, which can download pre-built artifacts from github release.

Eelco Dolstra's leadership is corrosive to the Nix project

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
