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.

Consistent Hashing: An Overview and Implementation in Golang
hashicorp/memberlist: go get -u github.com/hashicorp/memberlist
- library for gossip coordination

Is it possible to have more than 1 master available for writes in a raft system?
I use lightweight https://github.com/hashicorp/memberlist to build initial cluster skeleton (find out what are nodes constituting it)
-
Leaderless consensus protocol in the wild
Does https://github.com/hashicorp/memberlist count? It’s a gossip-based eventual consistency protocol based on SWIM.

What sort of mature, open-source libraries do you feel Rust should have but currently lacks?
An equivalent of golang's memberlist would be awesome.
-
What's the biggest outage you have ever caused?
I don't know the engineer that did it but I know what happened. There's a library that a bunch of foundational Amazon services use called DFDD. It uses a gossip protocol to handle service discovery and health checking. The open source equivalent is Hashicorp memberlist. To remove a node from the cluster, you have to send a command to an arbitrary node that says a node is dead.

Service discovery library in Rust?
serf uses memberlist which uses the SWIM failure detection protocol (https://www.cs.cornell.edu/projects/Quicksilver/public_pdfs/SWIM.pdf) with the Lifeguard extensions (https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.00788.pdf).

Ask HN: Which are the best go repositories to read to learn the language?

Fairly idiomatic/clean

A Spanner-based distributed locking library
This algorithm assumes you're doing that separately using some sort of membership protocol (e.g. SWIM), and you pass in the membership list that you are keeping up to date with that protocol. If you're curious about those, HashiCorp memberlist and HashiCorp Serf are really good to look at. I believe Consul uses those libraries under the hood.

CSS for Printing to Paper
> Is there any easy to use/hack HTML layouting engine where I could experiment with custom CSS attributes and bridge that gap? Would anything from Servo be suitable?
Servo could be used for this. You'd want to add support for parsing the CSS properties themselves to the style crate in https://github.com/servo/stylo and then the layout implementation to the layout2020 crate in https://github.com/servo/servo. You do effectively get a whole browser though.
I'm currently working on building a lighter weight / hackable layout engine based on a combination of https://github.com/servo/stylo (for css parsing and selector resolution), https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (for box-level layout) and https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (for flow/inline layout). I expect to have something decent in around 6 months
Neither of these setups currently have any support for pagination though.

The Ladybird Browser Project
Great to see some competition still alive in browser engine development. See also Servo (previously part of Mozilla) https://servo.org/ - that and Ladybird are still very underdeveloped compared to every day browsers.
It's a huge shame that there are no nightly builds of ladybird to try out but I assume that's because they just don't want the bug reports (if everything doesn't work it's pointless getting random bugs filed).

Modern Java/JVM Build Practices
The world has moved on though to opinionated tools, and Rust isn't even the furthest in that direction (That would be Go). The equivalent of those two lines in Cargo.toml would be this example of a basic configuration from the jacoco-maven-plugin: https://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/examples/build/pom.x... - That's 40 lines in the section to do the "defaults".
Yes, you could add a load of config for files to include/exclude from coverage and so on, but the idea that that's a norm is way more common in Java projects than other languages. Like here's some example Cargo.toml files from complicated Rust projects:
Servo: https://github.com/servo/servo/blob/main/Cargo.toml
rust-gdext: https://github.com/godot-rust/gdext/blob/master/godot-core/C...
ripgrep: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/Cargo.toml
socketio: https://github.com/1c3t3a/rust-socketio/blob/main/socketio/C...

❓ Is Google flagging activity from Firefox and targeting uBlock?
It won't don't worry. There already are forks, for the worst case scenario. And Servo is on its way. Not yet ready, but it will be. Originally, from Mozilla kitchen.

Populating the page: how browsers work
To pain broad strokes, the layout phase (~= take the HTML, take the CSS, determine the position and size of boxes) is largely sequential in production browser engine today. Selector matching (~= what CSS applies to what element) is parallel in Firefox today, via the Stylo Rust crate originally developed in the research browser engine Servo. Servo can do parallel layout in some capacity (but doesn't implement everything), https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/Servo-Layout-Engines-Rep... is an interesting and recent document on the matter.
Parallel layout is generally considered to be a complex engineering problem by domain experts.
https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/08/inside-a-super-fast-css-en... is a really cool article that is related, that is a few years old but what it says is largely correct today.
