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: Who is hiring? (May 2023)
Observatory of Geneva | Rust/Python Software Engineer | Geneva (Switzerland) | Hybrid Schedule | Full time (2.5 years)
The Observatory of Geneva (World renown in the field of exoplanetology, where Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz detected the first exoplanet, which got them a Nobel Prize in physics in 2019), in collaboration with the CEA (a French public government-funded research organization), will be seeking one talented junior software engineer to develop and improve two scientific codes which will predict the destiny of planetary systems (ESPEM & Posidonius, see https://github.com/marblestation/posidonius).
The successful candidate will:
- Collect the requirements (e.g., the code must run in multiple operating systems, provide pluggable solvers) that will inform future decisions about the design and implementation of a new ESPEM;
- Evaluate the use of more modern programming languages and design patterns (such as Rust and Python 3) for the new ESPEM;
- Design and implement a new version of ESPEM, reproducing the physics present in the current version of ESPEM but following the best coding practices;
- Design building blocks that will allow the implementation of new physics in a modular architecture for the new ESPEM;
- Implementation and integration of new physics in ESPEM and Posidonius;
- Write the corresponding documentation;
- Write unit tests to reach a coverage above 80% of the code;
- Identify optimizations that could help reduce the execution time, particularly certain functionalities that are more computing intense;
- Write visualization routines to easily explore the results.
Entry salary of 85,000 CHF with annual revisions + flexible schedule/environment (up to two days of allowed remote work) + friendly working culture with nice work-life balance + international travels (e.g. CEA headquarters in the Paris region, conferences).
Your contribution will be open source and it will have a world-wide impact in the exoplanet community!
Contact us with your CV and/or your questions: emeline.bolmont at unige.ch
We encourage applications from minorities, women, individuals with disabilities, and all other qualified applicants!

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (May 2023)
Subconscious | Full-time | REMOTE - Hiring globally, current team is San Francisco, Washington D.C. and Brisbane
At Subconscious, we’re building new infrastructure for an internet of ideas.
Noosphere is a next generation network protocol; a worldwide content graph (no blockchain though).
Subconscious is a social note-taking app powered by Noosphere and AI.
Our founders are former browser engineers from Google and Mozilla. We are a small, funded team of four.
We're looking for a few more folks to help bring our work into the world. Specifically, we are hiring:
- DevOps: you should know the ins and outs of cloud infrastructure orchestration and its interplay with deployed applications and services
- Cryptography/Privacy: help us make strong guarantees about public and private information, and bring user legibility to content provenance and authority
Some topical links:
- Subconscious Blog: https://subconscious.substack.com/
- Noosphere Project: https://github.com/subconsciousnetwork/noosphere
If you are interested, please drop us a line to introduce yourself at [email protected]

Noosphere, a Protocol for Thought
Currently we have a CLI that demonstrates multi-device synchronization in principle. You can install it using `cargo install noosphere-cli` (it installs a binary called "orb"). We also have pre-built binaries of orb for x86_64 Linux that you can find on our releases on Github (e.g., https://github.com/subconsciousnetwork/noosphere/releases/ta...). We'll be expanding our pre-built binaries to include other platforms soon.
Also, we have recently released a Swift package that gives a path to easily install our project as a dependency in XCode. We're turning the corner on offering the same FFI backing implementation as a TypeScript + WASM package, too. But, as I mentioned it's early days for us, so set your expectations accordingly.
The best way to stay up to date with new things you can do is join our Discord. I make regular announcements there about our technical progress.

Centralization Is Inevitable
Plug: I'm working with the author on a decentralized protocol for networked thought and a companion browser called Subconscious. We're a very young project and just getting off the ground.
If you're interested in topics like the one in the article, all our work is open source and we love getting into it with folks on Github or our Discord (link in the README): https://github.com/subconsciousnetwork/noosphere
