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.

Scammers posing as customer service agents on X as companies leave platform
I said “parts of the recommender system code.”
This is the kind of highly emotional reaction that’s not helpful.
Yes, I am quite familiar with building ML models, both training and building my own for which I’ve been paid large sums of money, and I’m here to tell you that you don’t know what you’re taking about.
There’s so much more information about an ML system than just the trained model that is important for understanding the effects of the system on a society, and its legal, ethical, and social ramifications.
Just seeing the type of RS being used, the ranking approach, and the information on SimClusters is enough for RAI folks to start to understand the ecosystem effects and how that can show up downstream in social effects.

Features of Project Loom incorporated in Java 21
Not sure about now but a few years back the company I worked for was heavily vested in Finagle [1] using Future pools. I'm sure virtual threads would only enhance this framework. Also, Spring and it's reactive webflux would probably benefit as well [2].

Twitter (re)Releases Recommendation Algorithm on GitHub
Don't really see how "enterprise scala" has anything to do with this, scala is meant to be parallelized , that's like it's whole thing with akka / actors / twitter's finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/)

We switched from Scala 2 to Rust
So biased. Twitter dropping Scala3 is simply untrue, ticket is there and still is open https://github.com/twitter/finagle/issues/932

Elon: "[Twitter's] recommendation algorithm was using absolute block count, rather than percentile block count, causing accounts with many followers to be dumped, even if blocks were only 0.1% of followers."
And the engineering team are far from imbeciles because they built one of the worlds' best cache and RPC microservice components. As well as the fact that up until Musk took over the website was running just fine (other than your issue with product decisions).

Pretty incredible thread where Elon confuses how GraphQL works, thinks the Android client itself is making one thousand requests, and then publicly fires an employee who corrects him.
Bro it's their fucking project lolhttps://twitter.github.io/finagle/

Elon Musk publicly feuding with and firing his developers on Twitter
RPC generally means server side calls, probably this https://twitter.github.io/finagle/, and XHR is not RPC.

Pretending to know what you're talking about
not familiar with twitter internals but it would be atypical to use gql for internal communications even if you expose it as a public api. twitter also develops a widely-used RPC system https://github.com/twitter/finagle
