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.

- Mixed feelings about Oracle Linux

Next year, IBM's Red Hat plans to cut back on hiring senior engineers in an effort aimed largely at controlling costs.
Oracle has a conversion script/tool to switch a CentOS machine to Oracle Linux. In the FAQ they're at least self-aware of their reputation:

Linux server flavors?
turn CentOS 8 into Oracle Linux 8: https://github.com/oracle/centos2ol
-
Rocky Linux release attracts 80,000 downloads as ex-CentOS users mull choices
But reading the docs and the claims that the site has https://linux.oracle.com/switch/centos/ it's a real option for mission-critical/production systems.

If Redhat used by the datacenter. Why do we learn another distro?
Actually Oracle Linux already fills that gap as a RHEL clone. Don't kill me, I know Oracle Linux is literally the only free product at that company. It even says so on their website:

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is so buggy you can't install the OS [video]
Be careful if you use ZFS-on-root, make sure not to snapshot bpool or it will brick your system and require a complete reinstall.

Radxa's SATA HAT makes compact Pi 5 NAS
> The only non-junk PCIe3 option that's even advertised here recently is the overpriced WD Red SN700.
Those WD drives seem to have some real issues, at least with ZFS and btrfs. :(

- OpenZFS: Fix corruption caused by MMAP flushing problems
- ZFS: Some copied files are still corrupted (chunks replaced by zeros)

DiskClick: Ever wanted to hear Old Hard drive sounds
IMO the "next fs" is just zfs. They somewhat recently merged RAIDZ expansion feature https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/12225 and make regular improvements. If no file system has what you need today, zfs will probably be the first one to have it "tomorrow," imo.

A data corruption bug in OpenZFS?

> zpool get all tank | grep bclone
> kc3000 bcloneused 442M
> kc3000 bclonesaved 1.42G
> kc3000 bcloneratio 4.30x
> My understanding is this: If the result is 0 for both bcloneused and bclonesaved then it's safe to say that you don't have silent corruption.

Ask HN: What's your "it's not stupid if it works" story?
A couple years ago, I had an idea for convincing a filesystem to go faster using 2 compression steps instead of one. I couldn't see why it wouldn't work, and I also couldn't convince myself it should.
It seems to have worked out. [1]

ZFS Profiling on Arch Linux
https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/7631
This is a long-standing issue with zvols which affects overall system stability, and has no real solution as of yet.

Using ZFS on single disks, combining them with mergerfs, and paritizing them with Snapraid
TIL. Thank you! https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/15022
