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 people in Google hate Go?
Except when you actually enjoy things being fast. For example, HTTPie easily adds 0.5-1s delay to every request because it's written in Python, especially on the first invocation. xh (https://github.com/ducaale/xh), on the other hand, starts immediately because it's written in Rust. I very much like this trend.

HTTPie Desktop: cross-platform API testing client for humans
HTTPie is great and was a big improvement for me over cURL.
However, I ended up switching to xh[1] as it's significantly faster and I prefer its output.

Tell HN: Postman just wiped all my stuff
No, but unless portability is a concern or you're massively familiar with curl, you might want to consider xh. It's much more intuitive.

The curl-wget Venn diagram
wget on the other hand, automatically converts the ñ to UTF-8 hex and resolves the link perfectly.
I've searched the curl manpage and couldn't find a way to solve this. Please help.
I'm having to use `xh --curl` [1] to "fix" the links before I pass them to curl.

Get better with Vim one tip at a time
Very nice, you should add xh to the User-Agents though.

I Could Rewrite Curl
While not a rewrite - one recent tool for making http requests which i quite enjoy is:
It's basically python httpie rewritten in rust. my only gripe is that i keep forgetting that it exists - and that "xh" is for http and "xhs" is for https.
So i frequently end up with curl anyway:)

I created a bulk APIRUNNER in Rust because I am fed up using POSTMAN for middleware Load testing
Not to discourage you from exploring and creating new projects but I had been looking for something similar for server testing and came across the xh rust project, modeled after Httpie

Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
A birdfeeder, a security camera, and this python script: https://github.com/ctrager/opencv_py/blob/master/red_yellow_...
I want to record visits to my birdfeeder but not all the visits. 99% of the visitors are sparrows, which, no offense to any sparrows reading this, are dull colored. I want to capture the cardinals, bright red birds. The python script monitors the video stream and starts recording when the image gets suddenly redder. But it's configurable to also react to blue (bluejays) and yellow (goldfinches).
This is barely baked, just a script.
Using this script: https://github.com/ctrager/opencv_py/blob/master/hummingbird...
