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 are you allowed to put into your personal github, from a job?
For example: shipit was a homebrew deployment system Shopify made, and they open-sourced it because there's nothing about how they ship their code that's a trade secret or worth hiding.

Faster Ruby: Thoughts from the Outside
> Usually that was in the form of long-running network calls.
That's why doing a network call to another service in the middle of a request is pretty much banned from the monolith. Anything that doesn't have a strict SLO is done from background jobs that can take longer, be retried etc.
Now you mention FedEx so I presume you were working on the shipping service, which by essence is kind of an API bridge so it's probably why it was deemed acceptable there, but that's far cry from what a typical Rails app look like, except maybe in companies that do a lot of micro-services and are forced to do inline requests.
> that's not a use case that Ruby/Rails are built to elegantly handle.
I'd argue the contrary, the elegant way to handle this is to perform these calls from background jobs. Look at shipit [0] for instance, it's syncing with the GitHub API constantly but doesn't do a single API call from inside a request cycle, every single API call is handled asynchronously from background jobs.

Ask HN: What are some open-source continuous deployment tools?
My team is evaluating different deployment tools to replace our homegrown solution.
There are plenty of continuous integration tools (GitHub Actions, CircleCi, etc.), but adding deployment aware logic like canary deployments and having an audit log of deploys requires adding lots of code which I'd rather not maintain.
I'm looking for tools focused on code deployment. A quick search turned up shipit (https://github.com/Shopify/shipit-engine) and teletraan (https://github.com/pinterest/teletraan).
Are there other open-source deployment tools like those projects?

Ruby 3.3's YJIT: Faster While Using Less Memory
Obviously as an interpreted language, it's never going to be as fast as something like C, Rust, or Go. Traditionally the ruby maintainers have not designed or optimized for pure speed, but that is changing, and the language is definitely faster these days compared to a decade ago.
If you like the ruby syntax/language but want the speed of a compiled language, it's also worth checking out Crystal[^1]. It's mostly ruby-like in syntax, style, and developer ergonomics.[^2] Although it's an entirely different language. Also a tiny community.

What languages are useful for contribution to the GNOME project.
Crystal is a nice language that's not only simple to read and write but performs very well too. And the documentation is amazing as well.

Jets: The Ruby Serverless Framework
Ruby is a super fun scripting language. I much prefer it to python when I need something with a little more "ooomph" than bash. It's just...nice...to write in. Ruby performance has come a long way in the last decade as well. There's libraries for pretty much everything.
My modern programming toolkit is basically golang + ruby + bash and I am never left wanting.
I do find Crystal (https://crystal-lang.org/) really interesting and am hoping it has its own "ruby on rails" moment that helps the language reach a tipping point in popularity. All the beauty of ruby with all of the speed of Go (and then some, it often compares favorably to languages like rust in benchmarks).
