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.

Systemd: The Good Parts
> You mean Slackware users on some random forum.
Believe it or not, that's actually the official slackware forum. And whatever solution those guys come up with, it will likely become the official solution.
> Besides, the solution they came up with uses XDG autostart which has nothing to do with systemd.
The slackware solution involves a project that nobody has heard of before, just so it can imitate the "user-level service" feature provided by systemd: https://github.com/raforg/daemon
> Not to mention that it's not even doing the exact same thing as the Gentoo solution and running two more commands in addition to pipewire.
The slackware solution requires starting those 3 processes (pipewire, pipewire-media-session, pipewire-pulse) separately from 3 different .desktop files, likely because the daemon tool above can't properly reap the pipewire-pulse process (not sure whose fault is this though).
On the other hand, the gentoo solution can start all 3 processes with just 1 .desktop files, because `pkill` takes care of it. Simple and effective.
I think the key difference, in this case, is that the slackware guys are trying their best to imitate a systemd feature, while the gentoo guys seem to focus more on finding the best way to allow users to enjoy pipewire.

OpenBSD System-Call Pinning

I'm assuming not, but I could always be mistaken.

From Nand to Tetris: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles
> building a cat from scratch
> That would be an interesting project.
Here is the source code of the OpenBSD implementation of cat:
> https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/bin/cat/cat.c
and here of the GNU coreutils implementation:
> https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/src/cat.c
Thus: I don't think building a cat from scratch or creating a tutorial about that topic is particularly hard (even though the HN audience would likely be interested in it). :-)

OpenBSD – pinning all system calls
> I don't know how they define `MAX`, but I'm guessing it's a typical "a>b?a:b"
Indeed: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/sys/param.h#L...
> Then `SYS_kbind` seems to be a signed int.
It's an untyped #define: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/sys/syscall.h...
I believe your whole analysis is correct, that running an elf file with an openbsd.syscalls entry with .sysno > INT_MAX will allow an out-of-bounds write.

tmux causing ANSI color-response garbage on attaching?
I can reproduce it. And this is the commit that causes the issue: https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/d21788ce70be80e9c4ed0c52c149e01147c4a823

Sudo-rs' first security audit
This doesn’t really change your conclusion, but I think that’s the wrong file. This is the real doas afaict: https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/usr.bin/doas/doas...
Still just a tidy 1072 lines in that folder though.
I spent 5 minutes staring at your file trying to understand how on earth it does the things in the man page, but of course it doesn’t.

OpenBSD: Removing syscall(2) from libc and kernel
OpenBSD developers are making serious effort to kill off indirect syscalls, the base system is completely clean, take a look at the work Andrew Fresh did to adapt Perl. He write a complete syscall "dispatcher" or emulator for the Perl syscall function so that it calls the libc stubs.
https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/312e26c80be876012ae979...
The ports tree is also being cleansed of syscall(2) usage, until they're all gone.
msyscall, pinsyscall, recent mandatory IBT/BTI, xonly. OpenBSD is making waves, but people aren't really seeing them yet.
What are some alternatives?
