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.

Firefox tooltip bug fixed after 22 years
- code browsing is primitive compared to https://searchfox.org/ (but most code browsing tool are, in comparison)
- my notifications are completely flooded by lots of useless information on GitHub, but that might be fixable
- our CI system (treeherder/taskcluster) scales, works on Linux/Mac/windows/Android and a bunch of version and arch, integrated with all of the other tools mentioned. Things such as auto-running tests based on the content of the patch, automatic categorization and prioritization of intermittent test failures, or auto-recording test failures and offering a pernosco recording showing the issue are just some of the features that we use daily without even thinking

Why SQLite Does Not Use Git
All the time. I would say at least 50% of my code browsing is done from my phone. I make heavily use of the mobile GitHub web interface for this (find-references support has been a godsend, search is still meh, I hate how they keep breaking basic find-in-page with SPA jank). Also Searchfox [0] when I need to comb through Firefox code (fast, excellent, no complaints).
Context: grad student, programming languages and systems research plus a bunch of IoT hacking on my own time. Either elder Gen Z or youngest possible Millennial, depending where you put the cutoff.

Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep (https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep) was inspired by it and is very usable.
[3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance, and Sourcegraph took it over. It powers most of the basic regex/literal search in Sourcegraph.
Mozilla's code is searchable in Searchfox (https://searchfox.org/) which uses the indexer from Livegrep, combined with their own Git indexer and language-specific cross reference databases.
OpenGrok (https://github.com/oracle/opengrok) is also rather well known, but I have found it to have a slightly worse UI than alternatives.

Also, you can use browser toolbox to inspect Firefox UI and see what styles are being applied to it and to figure out what selectors to use. Of course, there is also https://searchfox.org/ for when you need to figure out exactly how Firefox is doing some feature x.

Gitlab Duo
Since the relevant code appears to be in the "ee" directory <https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/v16.11.0-ee/ee/l...> and is not present in the foss repo, I'm guessing the answer is no, at least for now. They do have a history of "releasing" features from EE back to CE but my suspicion is not for LLM stuff

Client side Git hooks 101
(Side note: Issues are usually hash-prefixed like #1234 both on GitLab and GitHub. However, commit messages must not begin with a hash, they would be considered a comment and ignored. Therefore, GitHub has introduced the alternative prefix GH- and I've contributed a similar prefix GL- to GitLab a while ago.)

BuildKit in depth: Docker's build engine explained
and its "oh, you want multi-arch, do you?" friend. While prosecuting this <https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/339567> I learned that https://hub.docker.com/layers/multiarch/qemu-user-static/7.2... actually mutates the binfmt_misc in buildx's context in order to exec the static copy of qemu in it https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static/blob/v7.2.0-1/...
and, that the buildx plugin itself has some qemu magick in it, which got addressed in a minor version bump but I couldn't track down the relevant GitHub issue this second (I've flushed it from my mind, only recalling that there were a lot of actors in that tire fire)
