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.

Automating Workflows: Harnessing GitHub Actions, Docker, and GitHub npm Package
First of all, you need to generate a new GitHub Token. You can generate a token in your GitHub account settings at https://github.com/settings/tokens. Make sure to add the ‘read:packages’ scope to your token.

Effortlessly Deploy Your Flutter App on Google Play Store
Versioning The initial step in this workflow involves generating version numbers based on git tag numbers. To access repository information, it's necessary to include a GitHub token in the secrets. You can create a GitHub token by following this link. Please keep in mind that secret names cannot start with the term GITHUB. For instance, you might save your GitHub token as TOKEN_GITHUB.

Building A CI/CD Pipeline With Travis CI, Docker, And LambdaTest
In order to publish the artifacts to GitHub, we need to create a personal access token from the GitHub developer settings page and add it to the environment variables section of the Travis CI repository. The same variable api_key is used in the deploy phase of our configuration.

Backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to SSH server compromise
Just a documentation change, fortunately:
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/commits?author=...
They've submitted little documentation tweaks to other projects, too, for example:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/overview/whats-new-cpp...
I don't know whether this is a formerly-legitimate open source contributor who went rogue, or a deep-cover persona spreading innocuous-looking documentation changes around to other projects as a smokescreen.

Unlocking the Power of WebAssembly
WebAssembly is extremely portable. WebAssembly runs on: all major web browsers, V8 runtimes like Node.js, and independent Wasm runtimes like Wasmtime, Lucet, and Wasmer.

Prettier $20k Bounty was Claimed
The roadmap I linked above. The WASI folks have done a poor job at communicating, no doubt, but I'm surprised someone like yourself literally building a competitor spec isn't following what they are doing closely.
Just for you I did some googling: see here[0] for the current status of WASI threads overall, or here[1] and here[2] for what they are up to with WASI in general. In this PR[3] you can see they enabled threads (atomic instructions and shared memory, not thread creation) by default in wasmtime. And in this[4] repository you can see they are actively developing the thread creation API and have it as their #1 priority.
If folks want to use WASIX as a quick and dirty hack to compile existing programs, then by all means, have at it! I can see that being a technical win. Just know that your WASIX program isn't going to run natively in wasmtime (arguably the best WASM runtime today), nor will it run in browsers, because they're not going to expose WASIX - they're going to go with the standards instead. so far you're the only person I've met that thinks exposing POSIX fork() to WASM is a good idea, seemingly because it just lets you build existing apps 'without modification'.
Comical you accuse me of being polarizing, while pushing for your world with two competing WASI standards, two competing thread creation APIs, and a split WASM ecosystem overall.

Spin 2.0 – open-source tool for building and running WASM apps
Thanks for the question!
Spin could definitely run in more places than what we have pre-built binaries for. Specifically, we could run on all platforms Wasmtime supports today (https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/releases/tag/v1...), including RISC and S390X, for example.
And while we have been experimenting a bit with running Spin on RISC, we haven't really had the bandwidth or requirement to build a production build for those yet.
Are you interested in a specific operating system or CPU architecture? Would love to understand your scenario.

Dave Cutler: The Secret History of Microsoft Windows [video]
> I used to think we'd eventually get to capability based security, but now I see we'll always be stuck with application permission flags, the almost worthless bastard cousin, instead.
My hope is that WASI will introduce capability based security to the mainstream on non-mobile computers [0] - it might just take some time for them to get it right. (And hopefully no half-baked status-quo-reinforcing regressive single—runtime-backed alternatives win in the meantime.)
