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.

How Much Faster Is Making a Tar Archive Without Gzip?
Pragzip actually decompress in parallel and also access at random. I did a Show HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32366959
indexed_gzip https://github.com/pauldmccarthy/indexed_gzip can also do random access but is not parallel.
Both have to do a linear scan first though. The implementations however can do the linear scan on-demand, i.e., they scan only as far as needed.
bzip2 works very well with this approach. xz only works with this approach when compressed with multiple blocks. Similar is true for zstd.
For zstd, there also exists a seekable variant, which stores the block index at the end as metadata to avoid the linear scan. indexed_zstd offers random access to those files https://github.com/martinellimarco/indexed_zstd
I wrote pragzip and also combined all of the other random access compression backends in ratarmount to offer random access to TAR files that is magnitudes faster than archivemount: https://github.com/mxmlnkn/ratarmount

Is there any windows archival software (free or paid) that can browse tar.gz files without extracting the whole tarball?
The pieces are there. https://github.com/devsnd/tarindexer/blob/master/tarindexer.py is a prototype of indexing and seeking a tar file in python. https://github.com/pauldmccarthy/indexed_gzip allows indexing and seeking a gzip file. If those pieces of code were combined it could give you efficient targeted file extraction, but you'd need to find a coder with enough time and motivation to fuss with it.

Node.js vs Angular: Navigating the Modern Web Development Landscape
Using tools like Brotli, you can boost your application’s load time. You can use the ngUpgrade library to mix AngularJS and Angular components to enhance runtime performance, bringing in hybrid applications that can be used with techniques like ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation, aiding in faster browser rendering.

Jpegli: A New JPEG Coding Library
JPEGLI = A small JPEG
The suffix -li is used in Swiss German dialects. It forms a diminutive of the root word, by adding -li to the end of the root word to convey the smallness of the object and to convey a sense of intimacy or endearment.
This obviously comes out of Google Zürich.
Other notable Google projects using Swiss German:
https://github.com/google/gipfeli high-speed compression
Gipfeli = Croissant
https://github.com/google/guetzli perceptual JPEG encoder
Guetzli = Cookie
https://github.com/weggli-rs/weggli semantic search tool
Weggli = Bread roll
https://github.com/google/brotli lossless compression
Brötli = Small bread

Compression efficiency with shared dictionaries in Chrome
The brotli repo on github has a dictionary generator: https://github.com/google/brotli/blob/master/research/dictio...
I have a hosted version of it on https://use-as-dictionary.com/ to make it easier to experiment with.

The Full-Stack development experience
An additional element that we can finally remove from our stack is the minification of JavaScript and CSS files. Thanks to algorithms like brotli (with a very Swiss flavour) we no longer need to minify and compress our files before distributing them. Cloudflare, Nginx, or Apache will take care of everything for us.

Framer Update: 2x Faster Sites
We serve your site from a global cache location close to your visitors to make sure your site loads fast. In addition, we use an advanced HTML and text compression algorithm called Brotli. Compressed content is now cached, so we can send it directly to your visitors instead of compressing each request individually. In our tests this often improves loading speed by up to 2x, which will have a very positive impact on your Lighthouse scores like LCP. This will be especially noticeable on larger sites, so you can scale your site without worry.

How Much Faster Is Making a Tar Archive Without Gzip?
For anyone who wants to try this, zstd -T0 uses all your threads to compress, and https://github.com/facebook/zstd has a lot more description. Brotli, https://github.com/google/brotli, is another modern format with some good features for high compression levels and Content-Encoding support in web browsers. You might also want to play with the compression level (-1 to -11 or more, zstd's --fast=n).
One reason these modern compressors do better is not any particular mistake made defining DEFLATE in the 90s, but that new algos use a few MB of recently seen data as context instead of 32KB, and do other things impractical in the 90s but reasonable on modern hardware. The new algorithms also contain logs of smart ideas and have fine-tuned implementations, but that core difference seems important to note.

Stop delaying. Share knowledge on a blog built with Eleventy.
Alright, the minifying is done. What else? Did you know you can serve HTML, CSS and JS compressed? A lot of websites still use gzip, but there’s also Brotli. Brotli is specifically made for the web and compresses a lot better than gzip in most cases.
What are some alternatives?
tarindexer - python module for indexing tar files for fast access
Snappy - A fast compressor/decompressor
zstd - Zstandard - Fast real-time compression algorithm
LZ4 - Extremely Fast Compression algorithm
rapidgzip - Gzip Decompression and Random Access for Modern Multi-Core Machines
isa-l - Intelligent Storage Acceleration Library
LZMA - (Unofficial) Git mirror of LZMA SDK releases
libslz - Stateless, zlib-compatible, and very fast compression library -- http://libslz.org
ZLib - A massively spiffy yet delicately unobtrusive compression library.
indexed_zstd - A bridge for libzstd-seek to python. Based on mxmlnkn/indexed_bzip2
zlib-ng - zlib replacement with optimizations for "next generation" systems.
