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.

Erlang/OTP: Garbage Collector
It's my understanding the state of the art in observing JVM-based applications is a combination of using thread dumps, gc logs, thread activity visualizations. Thread dumps give us a snapshot of the the name of the thread, its current running state (waiting, blocked, etc), and the stacktrace of the work its currently doing. GC logs give you a record of when and how much garbage was collected and Thread activity visualizations show you the timeline of thread moving between different running states.
The BEAM gives you the ability to see the bottlenecks in your system, via the REPL (in real time!)
It has world-class introspection built in that gives you the power to observe and manipulate your running application through a REPL.
The BEAM has hundreds of features like this, because the BEAM is more of an OS than and VM.
I get it, you're a JVM expert, but the BEAM is more than a check list of optimizations that on paper the JVM can do.
I strongly suggest, before the next time you comment on an BEAM VM vs.JVM debate, please consider watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvBT4XBdoUE, "The Soul of Erlang and Elixir • Sasa Juric • GOTO 2019"
and reading https://github.com/happi/theBeamBook " an attempt to document the internals of the Erlang runtime system and the Erlang virtual machine known as the BEAM."
Best of luck!

Lunatic is an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly
it does. values are immutable in the BEAM, not at language level.
The impact of bugs is minimized by compartmentalization. This is done from the lowest level where each data structure is separate and immutable [1]
But you can simulate mutability with stateful processes.

Will project loom make java concurrency comparable to erlang's?
On a side-note, if you're really interested in grokking the BEAM itself, https://github.com/happi/theBeamBook is a very good resource that delves deeper into the internal working of BEAM. Regardless of whether you use it, it's a fun read!

I am going to become a software engineer - and I'd like to be a good one
But a software developer is not a software engineer, and I'll have to work on the side to make up for the holes in the developer cursus. I turned to reddit to look for recommandations, and I'm quite enthusiast with the TeachYourselfCS learning track - which I started along the Java lessons.

HN how do I learn to code?
HtDP [0], CS50x [1], and whatever strikes your interest from teachyourselfcs [2], in that order.
Also highly recommend the book for nand2Tetris after CS50.

Difference between learning programming and learning a language?
Study computer science, either through college or via teachyourselfcs.com.

Considering coding bootcamp
In the current market it's better to just put some resources together and learn from platforms like OSSU or Odin Project or FreeCodeCamp to really dip your toes in. The bootcamp era was a byproduct of interest rates at the time and shoveling in as many bodies as they could into the field. You can literally build a curicullum yourself for 6 months and see how you like it while working retail or whatever else. Or for the more technical side: teachyourselfcs.com gives you some ideas if you wanna start actual cs concepts.
