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.

Ask HN: Does (or why does) anyone use MapReduce anymore?
the idea of map reduce remains a good one.
there are a number of interesting innovations in streaming systems that followed, mostly around reducing latency, reducing batch size, and alternate failure/retry strategies.
even hadoop could be hard to debug when hitting a performance ceiling for challenging workloads. the streaming systems took this even further, spark being notorious for fiddle with knobs and pray the next job doesn’t fail after a few hours, again.
i played around with the thinnest possible map reduce stack a while back[1][2]. i wanted to understand the performance ceiling for different workloads without all the impenetrable layers of data bureaucracy. turns out modern network and cpu are really fast when you stop adding random software layers like lasagna.
i think the future of data, for serious workloads, is gonna be bespoke. the primitives are just too good now.

How fast are Linux pipes anyway?
pipes are great. is the other process on another cpu or another machine? honestly who cares.

Learning Go as a Python Developer: The Good and the Bad
i dragged my feet on go for a long time. i also thought that skipping go and moving to rust was the play. a few years later, i still write python often, but i don’t build systems with it. python i now use like bash, to glue things together and automate random things. it’s a fantastic language and i will never drop it.
the verbosity of go is the biggest hurdle for a pythonista. the thought of giving up context managers, decorators, iterators, comprehensions, exceptions, coroutines, it’s unthinkable. in comparison go is ugly. your aesthetic mind screams in protest.
write go full time. dive in. as months pass, not only will those aesthetic objections fade, your mental model from python cleanly transforms to go. go is what mypy tried to be. the cost was aesthetic changes. the benefit is worth it.
the zen of python says if it’s easy to explain it might be a good idea. this is go, and it is.
i rebuilt a reasonably sized project from python[1] to go[2] over the last few years. i also have a system that i maintained both python[3] and go[4] implementations for, sharing a test suite in python.
go, like python, is fantastic. use both in whatever amount works for you. don’t read about them, build with them. you won’t regret it.

Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
I have written these sorts of things, but I do try and put them up on GitHub if I think they’ll be useful to other people. I wrote a tool unimaginatively named wsl-ssh-pageant [0] which I wanted because I use a YubiKey for my SSH key but wanted it to be available in WSL. It has been by far my most popular GitHub project.
I do have other things as well, some on GitHub some not. A scraper to notify me when a local gym booking website changes for a time I’m interested in. A bridge between a BroadLink RM4 and HomeKit for some fans [1] - I wanted to avoid home-assistant. A script to grab my power consumption data. A shim to make gpg-agent compatible with launchd’s socket activation protocol [2].

Would Yubikey provide official support of using yubikey in WSL 1/2?
I don't need to pass a path to the gpg socket to wsl-ssh-pageant. I just pass it the UNC path for the socket I want it to open.

In the past I also used https://github.com/benpye/wsl-ssh-pageant to go from WSL to Pageant (which I believe KeeAgent is also compatible with)
What are some alternatives?

wsl2-ssh-pageant - bridge between windows pageant and wsl2
fastmod - A fast partial replacement for the codemod tool
