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.

Searchable Linux Syscall Table for x86 and x86_64
There's a pretty decent set of autogenerated lists present in strace source, see e.g. https://github.com/strace/strace/blob/master/src/linux/64/io...

Is it possible to get `strace` to append to a file immediately?
I guess the only way to find out is to make use of the fact that strace is OSS. https://github.com/strace/strace As I mentioned this is outside my skill level, but looking at the top level files I can see many references to output buffering so you may well be SOL.

Is systems programming dead?
No no noooo. Nope. Not even close. There's mountains of work down here. It's just less sexy, and less visible. There are a surprising number of ubiquitous sysutils that have very few relative github stars or whatever. Look at https://github.com/strace/strace for example. Laughably few stars compared to the flavor of the month javascript framework -- but does that mean that I can't find it on all of our *nix machines? Nope, it's on basically all of them.

Any Systemcalls/processes pro who can help me?
Maybe taking a look at the strace source repository can help you along.

Using Distributed Tracing in Microservices Architecture
Program(Process) Tracing (ptrace) Tools: Establishes tracing operation during the execution of the application. Contains the traces of the index of instructions executed and the data referenced during execution. These are greatly used by developers for debugging purposes. Some examples of ptrace tools are, Strace, Ltrace, Opensnoop, and Valgrind Lackey.

OpenTelemetry vs OpenTracing - choosing one for instrumentation
OpenTracing was an open-source project aimed at providing vendor-neutral APIs and instrumentation for distributed tracing. In distributed cloud-native applications, it is difficult for engineering teams to see how requests are performing across services. And thatβs where distributed tracing comes into the picture.

Do Not Log
I agree; but I think it'll take years, if ever, to change this culture.
Logging is a byproduct of a past time; everything is a file, stdout is a file, lets persist that file, now we have multiple replicas, lets collect the file into a multi-terabyte searchable database.
The biggest downside: Its WILDLY expensive. Large orgs often have an entire team dedicated to maintaining logging (ELK) infrastructure. This price-tag inevitably leads to bikeshedding on backend teams about how to "reduce the amount we're logging" or "cleaning up the logs" or "structuring them to be more useful".
Outside of development, they are so rarely useful. Yet inevitably someone will say: "you're just not structuring your logs correctly." Maybe that's true; similarly, I don't find vim to be a highly productive editing experience. Maybe I just don't have the thousands of extensions it would take to make it so. Or maybe You're stuck in the past and ignoring two decades of tooling improvement. Both can be true.
I'm phrasing this as a false dichotomy, because in many teams: it is. Logging is easy; its built-in to most languages; so devs log. The information we need is in the system; its a needle in a haystack, but the needle is there. We log when a request comes in, when it hits pertinent functions, when its finished, how its finished, the manager says: "just look at the logs". Instead of "what better tooling can we make an investment in so future investigations of this nature don't take a full day."
For starters: Tracing. Tracing systems should be built-in to EVERY LANGUAGE, just like console.log. We have a standard [1] sponsored by the Linux Foundation and supported by every major trace ingestion system. This is not a problem of camps and proprietary systems; its a problem of culture. I should be able to call a nodejs stdlib function at startup, specify where I want traces to go, sampling rate, etc, and immediately get every single function call instrumented. Its literally just highly-structured-by-default logging! Dump the spans to stdout by default! Our log ingestion systems can read each line, determine if its a span, if so route to trace ingestion, otherwise route to log ingestion.
This is a critical step because it asserts that tracing is actually a very powerful tool that everyone needs to learn, like logging. Everyone knows about logging. Why? console.log. Its there, it gets used. Tracing right now is relegated to a subculture of "advanced diagnostics"; you gotta adopt a tracing provider, bring in dependencies, learn each implementation of OpenTracing, authenticate to send traces over HTTP... as a community, we should normalize just "dump traces like you dump logs, to stdout", have a formatter to make them nice to use in development, and now all that instrumentation work that any dev is capable of utilizing (just like console.log) "just works" in production.

Service mesh - ssup2ket services run on service mesh for detailed traffic control and easy monitoring. Service mesh is applied through Istio. Istio uses OpenTracing for easy request tracing between multiple services.
