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 transitory nature of MLOps: Advocating for DevOps/MLOps coalescence
Back in 2013, a little company called Docker made it really easy to start using containers to package up applications. A big key to their success was the OCI (you can learn about that here), an industry wide initiative to have standards around how we package up our applications. Because of OCI standards, we have hundreds (maybe thousands?) of tools that can be combined to manage and deploy applications. So why aren’t we using this for packaging up Notebooks and AI models as well? It would make deploying, sharing, and managing our models easier for everyone involved.

The Road To Kubernetes: How Older Technologies Add Up
Kubernetes on the backend used to utilize docker for much of its container runtime solutions. One of the modular features of Kubernetes is the ability to utilize a Container Runtime Interface or CRI. The problem was that Docker didn't really meet the spec properly and they had to maintain a shim to translate properly. Instead users could utilize the popular containerd or cri-o runtimes. These follow the Open Container Initiative or OCI's guidelines on container formats.

Coexistence of containers and Helm charts - OCI based registries
OCI stands for Open Container Initiative, and its goal as an organization is to define a specification for container formats and runtime.

Creating Kubernetes Cluster With CRI-O
CRI-O is a lightweight container runtime for Kubernetes. It is an implementation of Kubernetes CRI to use Open Container Initiative (OCI) compatible runtimes for running pods. It supports runc and Kata Containers as the container runtimes, but any OCI-compatible runtime can be integrated.

What is the current status of Docker and how far is it from getting ported?
So somebody else created runj (runj is an experimental, proof-of-concept OCI-compatible runtime for FreeBSD jails.) https://github.com/samuelkarp/runj

Sony's Playstation Portal hacked, can now emulate PSP games
Oh neat! Thanks for the information.
> running Steam on Bazzite (https://bazzite.gg) inside Proxmox.
Does this mean you can pass the gyro controls onto Steam Link or GeForce Now or some such? I have no interest in retro games, but it would be awesome to use gyro aiming for shooters...

Project Bluefin: an immutable, developer-focused, Cloud-native Linux
I went looking for KDE, but was disappointed. From the FAQ on https://projectbluefin.io/:
> What if I want something like KDE or another window manager?
> Bluefin is an opinionated GNOME experience. However Universal Blue provides a maintained set of base images for anyone to be able to make a custom image. We hope Bluefin acts as an inspiration for others to build their own communities around user experiences. For example check out Bazzite if you want a great KDE gaming experience, similar to SteamOS.
The Bazzite link 404s, but there is info at https://universal-blue.org/blog/2023/11/08/bazzite-20/ and https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite. Seems mostly focused on SteamDeck.

Thorium – Radioactive Chromium Fork
It's a cool list of patches.
I love these projects that bundle a bunch of cool things together with a base thing. Bazzite is a SteamOS project that similarly bundles all kinds of crazy things, and was a very popular recent submission, for another example. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38828040 https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite
The maintenance style here looks difficult. They seem to somehow take chunks of new chromium releases and make commits with those dropped in changes, and fix random stuff for a while. Looks very arduous. It makes me appreciate a somewhat opposed style, the Debian's Quilt model, where you have take the upstream and keep reapplying a set of patches to upstream. Maintaining is then just re-hacking any patches that break, and authoring new patches, whenever reapplying breaks. Seems like it'd be much easier to maintain, long run.
I was also hoping for something like the Quilt model because it seemed like it would be a good way to learn some shit about Chromium! Having the patches on hand would point to some key parts of the code-base, I feel! Im not sure how I'd learn what went into this fork, other than meticulously going through history. The readme also doesn't link to where it sources it's many patches from (which is another thing Bazzite did an excellent job of!).
Kind of interesting seeing a spreading focus on using more/modern x86-64 extensions spreading. Ubuntu is dabbling with what they are calling x86-64-v3, Red Hat too. https://www.phoronix.com/news/RedHat-RHEL10-x86-64-v3-Explor...

I forked SteamOS for my living room PC
Hadn't heard of Bazzite.
> Bazzite is an OCI image that serves as an alternative operating system for the Steam Deck, and a ready-to-game SteamOS-like for desktop computers, living room home theater PCs, and numerous other handheld PCs.
https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/
Worth visiting the readme even if not interested. There's a huge list of included stuff, and a lot of it seems really cool.and helpful (for gamers or streamers mostly).
