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.

What's the status of Open Application Model?
There was recently score.dev, but that is also just used by one tool.
- One YAML to rule them all

Best events/conferences to participate for an open-source project?
Yesterday I was thinking about the roadmap and the discussions that are happening in the community (you can check them here and feel free to open one or contribute to an active one) and I am excited to see how much we have to look forward in 2023.

Thoughts on my new OSS tool launch + twitter space happening today
A month ago we open sourced Score. The community response has been really great so far (just over 1k stars in 4 weeks) and we got many questions thrown at us:
-
One YAML to rule them all!
Hi all, I am Giulia, Community Manager and part of the team that launched Score.dev a week ago. My team and I believe that developers shouldn’t fight with tooling and advocate for a workload-centric approach to development. We’re on a mission to reduce cognitive load on developers, minimize configuration drift and mismanagement, and improve the developer experience. Want to join us as a contributor? Read the official announcement to learn more. Or check us out on GitHub!
- One YAML to rule them all. We just open sourced a new workload config spec so you can configure once and deploy to any environment (local, cloud, etc.)

The pros and cons of managing configuration for multiple environments
Last week we released score-spec and I asked a few communities for feedback on how you manage configuration between multiple environments and a lot of you (thanks!) came up with some answers and more questions. Here I wanted to list the pros and cons, in my humble opinion, of the top approaches suggested. Feel free to add yours as well!
- Trouble with consistent config across environments?

Plan B for UUIDs: double AES-128
I really like ULID for this problem (e.g: https://github.com/ahawker/ulid)
- same number of bytes as UUID
- start with a date, so has great locality. Plus you get extra information in the uid that you can extract.
- can be created from an existing date or uuid, and exported to a uuid, so there is a migration path

New UUID Formats from IETF
As the author of a popular ULID implementation in python[1], the spec has no stewardship anymore. The specification repo[2] has plenty of open issues and no real guidance or communication beyond language implementation authors discussing corner cases. The monotonic functionality is ambiguous (at best) and is implemented differently per-languages [3].
Functionality, UUIDv7 might be the _same_ but the hope would be for a more rigid specification for interoperability.

Sortable Collision-Free UUIDs
Looks similar to ULID[0] (I am the author of a popular python implementation[1]).
It appears to have a similar constraint that two ID's generated within the same timestamp (ms, ns) have no strong guarantee of ordering. That might not be a deal breaker depending on your use case but something to consider.
