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.

FreeBSD has a(nother) new C compiler: Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++
I think they do a lot of good stuff, like LTO and PGO.
But in benchmarks you sometimes see like a 4x speedup compared to ubuntu, which is obviously not due to superior compilers.
For example:

Best way to benchmark PCs under Linux, with CPU/GPU/disk/RAM testing?
phoronix test suite has a benchmark for pretty much everything

Looking for some comparison on build times on recent GCC versions.
I think you can use the Phoronix Test Suite for build time bench mark testing

LTO and CFLAGS benchmarking ideas
But I have no clue what could I use for actual benchmarking part. I know about Phoronix Test Suite, but from what I can tell, it’s designed to compile the tested software on its own, ignoring the pre-installed software—see Q: Why does the Phoronix Test Suite not use my distribution's package management system for acquiring all needed packages?:

When running the phoronix test, it keeps opening on my 2nd monitor, not on my primary monitor
Using the phoronix test suite when I attempt to run it on my Linux machine, it opens the game in full screen on the 2nd monitor.

SSD Benchmark Tool for Linux
If you want an all-in-one, maybe something like the Phoronix Test Suite? You can run just the disk tests, if that's all you want. https://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/

How can I do a profile of my hardware specs to see what would be a next nice upgrade to my machine?
There is the Phoronix test suite. Lots of benchmarks etc there,

Autodafe: "freeing your freeing your project from the clammy grip of autotools."
> Are we talking about the same autotools?
Yes. Instead of figuring out how to do something particular with every single software package, I can do a --with-foo or --without-bar or --prefix=/opt/baz-1.2.3, and be fairly confident that it will work the way I want.
Certainly with package managers or (FreeBSD) Ports a lot is taken care of behind the scenes, but the above would also help the package/port maintainers as well. Lately I've been using Spack for special-needs compiles, but maintainer ease also helps there, but there are still cases one a 'fully manual' compile is still done.
> Suffice it to say, I prefer to work with handwritten makefiles.
Having everyone 'roll their own' system would probably be worse, because any "mysteriously failure" then has to be debugged specially for each project.
Have you tried Spack?

Well, good luck with that, cause it's broken.

The Curious Case of MD5
> I can't count the number of times I've seen people say "md5 is fine for use case xyz" where in some counterintuitive way it wasn't fine.
I can count many more times that people told me that md5 was "broken" for file verification when, in fact, it never has been.
My main gripe with the article is that it portrays the entire legal profession as "backwards" and "deeply negligent" when they're not actually doing anything unsafe -- or even likely to be unsafe. And "tech" knows better. Much of tech, it would seem, has no idea about the use cases and why one might be safe or not. They just know something's "broken" -- so, clearly, we should update.
> Just use a safe one, even if you think you "don't need it".
Here's me switching 5,700 or so hashes from md5 to sha256 in 2019: https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/13185
Did I need it? No. Am I "compliant"? Yes.
Really, though, the main tangible benefit was that it saved me having to respond to questions and uninformed criticism from people unnecessarily worried about md5 checksums.

Cython 3.0 Released
In Spack [1] we can express all these constraints for the dependency solver, and we also try to always re-cythonize sources. The latter is because bundled cythonized files are sometimes forward incompatible with Python, so it's better to just regenerate those with an up to date cython.

Linux server for physics simulations
You want to look at the tools used for HPC systems, these are generally very well tried and tested and can be setup for single machine usage. Remote access - we use ssh, but web interfaces such as Open On Demand exist - https://openondemand.org/. For managing Jobs, Slurm is currently the most popular option - https://slurm.schedmd.com/documentation.html. For a module system (to load software and libraries per user), Spack is a great - https://spack.io/. You might also want to consider containerisation options, https://apptainer.org/ is a good option.
