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.

Programming Breakthroughs We Need
Some code formatters such as Spotless (https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/tree/main/plugin-gradle...) allow you to format code only in files that have changes against some designated branch such as `master`. So, you check out your feature branch, make changes, do some commits, and run spotless. Only the files which have some changes between your workspace and the master branch will be formatted. This allows you to gradually format the project as and when files would be changed anyways.
- What supporting tools (linting, style/formatting, etc) are you using nowadays?

How does Apache ShardingSphere standardize and format code? We use Spotless
As a Top-Level Apache open source project, ShardingSphere has 400 contributors as of today. Since most developers do not have the same coding style, it is not easy to standardize the project’s overall code format in a GitHub open collaboration model. To solve this issue, ShardingSphere uses Spotless to unify code formatting.

Use semantic indenting
But please just use an code formatter like spotless. Or better yet set it as a pre commit hook. You will thank yourself later, and so will all of your coworkers.

Zero Config Code Formatter?
I use Spotless but it’s not as opiniotated as Prettier or Black

The obligatory braces and if/else questions
I use Spotless and it works quite well, but there are many other options. Also good IDEs can reformat your code.
- Java Cheatsheet to refresh the basic concepts of Java
- Is there any actively maintained Java library to format code?

diKTat 0.4.0 is released - kotlin linter and static analyzer
We are working on different ways to run diktat, however. For example, the integration into spotless is on its way. In the future we might consider adding support for Intellij, and if someone decides to contribute it - it will be very welcome as well.

An Introduction to Temporal Logic (With Applications to Concurrency Problems)
I think most development occurs on problems that can't be formally modeled anyway. Most developers work on things like, "can you add this feature to the e-commerce site? And can the pop-up be blue?" which isn't really model-able.
But that's not to say that formal methods are useless! We can still prove some interesting aspects of programs -- for example, that every lock that gets acquired later gets released. I think tools like Infer[0] could become common in the coming years.

Enforcing Memory Safety?
Using infer, someone else exploited null-dereference checks to introduce simple affine types in C++. Cppcheck also checks for null-dereferences. Unfortunately, that approach means that borrow-counting references have a larger sizeof than non-borrow counting references, so optimizing the count away potentially changes the semantics of a program which introduces a whole new way of writing subtly wrong code.

Interesting ocaml mention in buck2 by fb
Meta/Facebook are long time OCaml users, their logo is on the OCaml website. Their static analysis tool and its predecessor are both written in OCaml.

CISA Director Easterly's comments about cyber security. Agree or disagree?
Then this idea that the US government will tell tech companies how to write secure software. Let's get this straight, the private sector, especially big tech is miles ahead of US government in this regard. Microsoft literally invented threat modelling and modern exploit mitigations. Facebook has the best appsec processes pretty much in the whole world, including their own cutting edge code analyzer. AWS uses formal verification everywhere. Meanwhile the US government itself runs mission-critical systems that's almost literally held together by bubble gum and toothpicks. Maybe they could dial down the arrogance a tad, get their own shit together, learn how this cyber stuff is actually done and only then try lecturing everyone else.

A quick look at free C++ static analysis tools
I notice there isn't fbinfer. It's pretty cool, and is used for this library.

silly guy
"Move fast, break stuff" is a great approach when you aren't pushing the broken bits to production. Fuck, even Facebook, the big "move fast, break stuff" company, uses tools to detect errors in its continuous integration toolchain. https://fbinfer.com/

Beyond Functional Programming: The Verse Programming Language (Epic Games' new language with Simon Peyton Jones)
TBH, there's a non-zero amount of non-"ivory tower" tools you may have used that are written in functional languages. Say, Pandoc or Shellcheck are written in Haskell; Infer and Flow are written in OCaml. RabbitMQ and Whatsapp are implemented in Erlang (FB Messenger was too, originally; they switched to the C++ servers later). Twitter backend is (or was, at least) written in Scala.
