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.

Implementing OTel Trace Context Propagation Through Message Brokers with Go
Several message brokers, such as NATS and database queues, are not supported by OpenTelemetry (OTel) SDKs. This article will guide you on how to use context propagation explicitly with these message queues.

Interview with Sebastian Holstein, Founder of Qaze
During our interview, we referred to NATS quite a few times! If you want to learn more about it, Sebastian suggests this tutorial series.

Sequential and parallel execution of long-running shell commands
Pueue dumps the state of the queue to the disk as JSON every time the state changes, so when you have a lot of queued jobs this results in considerable disk io. I actually changed it to compress the state file via zstd which helped quite a bit but then eventually just moved on to running NATS [1] locally.

Revolutionizing Real-Time Alerts with AI, NATs and Streamlit
Imagine you have an AI-powered personal alerting chat assistant that interacts using up-to-date data. Whether it's a big move in the stock market that affects your investments, any significant change on your shared SharePoint documents, or discounts on Amazon you were waiting for, the application is designed to keep you informed and alert you about any significant changes based on the criteria you set in advance using your natural language. In this post, we will learn how to build a full-stack event-driven weather alert chat application in Python using pretty cool tools: Streamlit, NATS, and OpenAI. The app can collect real-time weather information, understand your criteria for alerts using AI, and deliver these alerts to the user interface.

New scalable, fault-tolerant, and efficient open-source MQTT broker
Why wasn't NATS[1] used ?
Written in Go, single-binary deployment... there's a lot to love about NATS !

Introducing “Database Performance at Scale”: A Free, Open Source Book
About cost, see [1]. Also, S3 prices have been increasing and there's been a bunch of alternative offers for object store from other companies. I think people in here (HN) comment often about increasing costs of AWS offerings.
Distributed systems and consensus are inherently hard problem, but there are a lot of implementations that you can study (like Etcd that you mention, or NATS [2], which I've been playing with and looks super cool so far :-p) if you want to understand the internals, on top of many books and papers released.
Again, I never said it was "easy" to build distributed systems, I just don't think there's any esoteric knowledge to what S3 provides.

Is it an antipattern to use the response channel as identifier
I am in a project were nats.io is used. Someone thought, it would be a great idea to link data in an event with data in a response using the response channel name.

Hanami and HTMX - progress bar
Hi there! I want to show off a little feature I made using hanami, htmx and a little bit of redis + sidekiq.

I'd say Sidekiq is the top competitor here.

Valkey Is Rapidly Overtaking Redis
There's something wrong at Redislabs, it took them over a year to get RESP3 rolled out into their hosted service, you'd expect a rollout of that to be a bit quicker when they're the owner of Redis.
It affected us when upgrading Sidekiq to version 7, which dropped support for older Redis, and their Envoy proxy setup didn't support HELLO and RESP3: https://github.com/sidekiq/sidekiq/issues/5594

Redis Re-Implemented with SQLite
That depends on how the `maxmemory-policy` is configured, and queue systems based on Redis will tell you not to allow eviction. https://github.com/sidekiq/sidekiq/wiki/Using-Redis#memory (it even logs a warnings if it detects your Redis is misconfigured IIRC).

Sidekiq https://sidekiq.org/: This one started as an open source project, once it got enough traction, the developer made a premium version of it, and makes money by selling licenses to businesses.

Choose Postgres Queue Technology
Sidekiq will drop in-progress jobs when a worker crashes. Sidekiq Pro can recover those jobs but with a large delay. Sidekiq is excellent overall but it’s not suitable for processing critical jobs with a low latency guarantee.

We built the fastest CI in the world. It failed
> I'm not sure feature withholding has traditionally worked out well in the developer space.
I think it's worked out well for Sidekiq (https://sidekiq.org). I really like their model of layering valuable features between the OSS / Pro / Enterprise licenses.

Exploring concurrent rate limiters, mutexes, semaphores
I was studying Sidekiq's page on rate limiters. The first type of rate limiting mentioned is the concurrent limiter: only n tasks are allowed to run at any point in time. Note that this is independent of time units (e.g. per second), or how long they take to run. The only limitation is the number of concurrent tasks/requests.
