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.

Why Does Everyone Forget Java and C# for Backend Development? Why Don’t Full-Stack Developers Learn Java and C#?
Java was created by James Gosling and released by Sun Microsystems in 1995. It was designed with the principle of "Write Once, Run Anywhere" (WORA), enabling cross-platform compatibility through the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Over the years, Java became a leading language for enterprise applications, Android development, and large-scale backend systems. Oracle now maintains Java, with modern innovations such as Project Loom and GraalVM enhancing its performance.

Compiling Java into Native Binaries with Graal and Mill
Sorry, I know you weren't asking me, but for this same use case, yes, I've used a GHA build matrix with each OS/arch pair.
Cosmo/APE support would fix this, and GraalVM already ships with a Musl libc implementation, so it isn't very far off.

Java Can Be Serverless Too: Using GraalVM for Fast Cold Starts
It wasn’t long before I ran into several other blog posts about developers successfully using GraalVM and frameworks such as Quarkus to address this very problem. And so I’ve decided to try it out for myself.

Lambda function with GraalVM Native Image - Part 1 Introduction to GraalVM and its native image capabilities
GraalVM adds an advanced just-in-time (JIT) optimizing compiler, which is written in Java, to the HotSpot Java Virtual Machine.

Marta File Manager: Back on Track
You can trim down the runtime[1] but the tooling around doing this is non-existent / unreliable. Alternatively, you can generate native binaries with GraalVM[2] which comes with its own baggage (license, slow compile time, etc).

Cosmopolitan v3.5.0
Too bad it looks stuck since about a month ago (https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/8350#issuecomment-210...), needs some attention from @jart.

Migrating from Java 8 to Java 17: A Comprehensive Guide to New Features
Really now? Now that's interesting. I thought GraalVM might be a good option in that space https://www.graalvm.org/ last I checked, but something literally called Hermetic Java has my interest piqued.

One year of solo dev, wrapping up the grant-funded work
Had to look back at the deep bug you described and I am happy that someone looked into it[1] and got it fixed.
Also happy that they so publicly acknowledged your work to narrow it down!

Memory-safe, clean implementation of classic Posix "BC" calculator
No idea, but according to this site: https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes there a wasm runtimes written in all kinds of languages. This does not appear to be a very challenging thing to do, but I haven't look at this closely.

Extism Makes WebAssembly Easy
Firecracker is a fine technology, but serverless companies have started taking advantage Wasm's faster start-up times for use cases of running Wasm on the server (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqgCxhPAao0). The deny by default security policy makes Wasm a great choice to run your code in isolation, particularly for maximizing hardware resources in the multi-tenant environments these serverless companies operate.
In the past few years, we have seen more use cases of Wasm emerge outside of the browser. JavaScript engines are now just a fraction of the total number of runtimes available. Wasmtime, Wasmer, WasmEdge, wazero are popular ones for non-browser use cases like blockchain, serverless, and edge computing (although Cloudflare uses V8's Wasm engine). WAMR is a popular one for cyber physical/IoT devices. There's a nice list here: https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes

I think [...] the "future of computing" is going to be [...] CISC. I’ve read of IBM mainframes that have [hardware instructions for] parsing XML [...]; if you had garbage collection, bounds checking, and type checking in hardware, you’d have fewer and smaller instructions that achieved just as much.
There's plenty of other ways to interact with Wasm, most of which are secure. (Wasmtime is the one I'm most familiar with, which is why I linked to it.)

Lunatic is an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly
Yeah, this is one of many non-browser runtimes, e.g. see https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes
Lunatic is more opinionated than most of these or node, though, in that it's trying to emulate a particular concurrent system design pattern borrowed from Erlang/BEAM.

What to learn in 2022
Now, the creation Bytecode Alliance, the development of multiple WebAssembly runtimes and the work of the W3C WebAssembly Community Group is why I belive it will get popular, but the capability-based security model is why I want it to get popular.

Ho Ho Ho, WasmEdge 0.9.0 is here!
âš– I think it's really cool that a plugin author could compile their C++ to .wasm such that a single plugin binary can run on either Linux or Windows (don't need an x86 .dll, x64 .dll, x86 .so, x64 .so...) and in a sandbox (no arbitrary syscalls or Win32 calls, just the interfaces given to it), while still getting near native AOT speed. Though, it's hard to judge which one to choose from now with all the wasm engines that are available (https://github.com/appcypher/awesome-wasm-runtimes), with wasmtime or inNative being two others I've considered for my project. I'll definitely look into this one though, given it supports many of the newer proposals.

Why WebAssembly is innovative even outside the browser
Numerous native runtimes for webassembly already exist[0], with the current popular choices apparently being Wasmer[1] and Wasmtime[2].
All one would need to do (AFAIK) is ship a client for all major platforms, as is done with Electron (and web browsers themselves, and everything else.)
