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.

Jak & Daxter PC fanmade port runs like a dream (and also natively) on the Deck
Github page
-
How many of y'all retro game or emulate old titles?
If you want to try jak and daxter, try this first before emulating https://github.com/open-goal/jak-project
- Playing to 100% complete the original Jak and Daxter. Ps2, on crt tv, composite av. The way it was meant to be. Nothing beats authenticity
- It kinda feels like pay to cheat now
- Playing (Jak and Daxter) on pc, I wish they would make a new game in the series.
- Bundle vs Individual games
-
Nintendo classic 'Zelda: A Link to the Past' gets an unofficial PC port | It has key enhancements like widescreen support, faster transitions and pixel shaders.
Jak and Daxter
- Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy now runs natively on PC at 4k and 60 fps by using the fanmade OpenGOAL launcher.

Max starts the Golden Age of Marvel Mods with a R$5000 bounty for whoever mods char slots into Marvel 3.
But now there's NSA's Ghidra which has accelerated decompilations/reverse engineering a ton, it means that within a few years any active community can fully reverse engineer into human readable code and make major changes, it's why now there's a Driver 2 PC port and a Jak & Daxter PC port with 2 and 3 being in the works despite these games having basically no community before it, Nintendo games have a bigger modding community and a lot of games are on the way to being fully decompiled (bonus in that some games share a lot of stuff, so as one project completes it also makes it so that multiple games also advance faster
- Any Updates on Jak 2 for OpenGOAL?

3rd Edition of Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++ by Stroustrup
For a single file script, nix can make the package management quite easy: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/doc/languages-f...
For example,
```

NixOS Is Not Reproducible
Yes, Nix doesn't actually ensure that the builds are deterministic. In fact it works just fine if they aren't. There are packages in nixpkgs that aren't reproducible: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aiss...
-
The xz attack shell script
I'm not familiar with Bazel, but Nix in it's current form wouldn't have solved this attack. First of all, the standard mkDerivation function calls the same configure; make; make install process that made this attack possible. Nixpkgs regularly pulls in external resources (fetchUrl and friends) that are equally vulnerable to a poisoned release tarball. Checkout the comment on the current xz entry in nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/tools/comp...

Debian Git Monorepo
NixOS uses a monorepo and I think everyone's love it.
I love being able to easily grep through all the packages source code and there's regularly PRs that harmonizes conventions across many packages.
Nixpkgs doesn't include the packaged software source code, so it's a lot more practical than what Debian is doing.

From xz to ibus: more questionable tarballs
In this specific case, nix uses fetchFromGitHub to download the source archive, which are generated by GitHub for the specified revision[1]. Arch seems to just download the tarball from the releases page[2].

GitHub Disabled the Xz Repo
True, but irrelevant -- _some packages_, _somewhere_, do depend on xz, which, if built, requires pulling the source from GitHub (see the default.nix: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-23.11/pkgs/tools...)
It's not the vulnerability that's a problem right now (NixOS was protected by a couple of factors) but rather GitHub's hamfisted response.
That is the problem.

Combining Nix with Terraform for better DevOps
We’ve noticed that some users have been asking about how to use older versions of Terraform in their Nix setups [1, 2]. This is an example of the diverse needs of people and the importance of maintaining backward compatibility. We hope that nixpkgs-terraform will be a useful tool for these users.
-
Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
I think whateveracct was referring to is this link:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/developmen...
What that file is doing, is building a package, and it essentially is a combination of what Makefile and what RPM spec file does.
I don't know if you're familiar with those tools, but if you aren't it takes some time to know them enough to understand what is happening. So why would be different here?
