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.

WebAssembly: Adding atomics waits to the main thread is the right thing to do
Specifically I submitted this to draw attention to the latest comment in the thread: https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads/issues/177
It's a good deep dive into how a small, but well-intentioned, browser choice nearly a decade ago led to poor outcomes for the WebAssembly ecosystem.

WASI Support in Go
The answer is: it's complicated. Which is most of the time the answer in the WASI world.
For this case it's complicated because some runtime supports https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads which mostly contains things like the spec for atomic but not the actual "threads" specs and then some runtimes (i.e wasmtime) also supports https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-threads which is one version of the threads. But a new proposal came into play https://github.com/abrown/thread-spawn so ... it's complicated.

WASM is the future?
There’s a proposal for threads

The State of WebAssembly â 2021 and 2022
It's disappointing to see the WebAssembly/threads proposal is still only in proposal state, despite existing since 2018. It being just a proposal stops languages like golang from actually implementing support for it, despite Chrome supporting it since v70.

Using WebAssembly threads from C, C++ and Rust
Ah, I should have clarified that I mean the assembly instructions for atomics, rather than the JavaScript API. I.e. the opcodes listed here: https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads/blob/master/proposals...
-
AMA: We are Akhi, Alexandra, Islam, and Dimitris from the DFINITY Execution team. Ask us anything about building the execution layer.
Another point to add here is that the current wasm specification does not support threads although there is a proposal to add one. So I imagine that till the wasm specification includes it, we will continue to have only single threaded canisters.

latency and optimizations for gaming ?
Other than that, I heard there's some 3rd party network libraries that are generally considered lower latency, one of them I believe either redhat uses for one of their systems, or it is sponsored by them: https://github.com/Xilinx-CNS/onload

Arbitrage and efficient data storage
I mean really you want to be doing some kind of (kernel network bypass with some sort of system programming language like C++ for low latency trading systems like this. Arb trading is usually not worth it unless you have a ton of expertise or some crazy mathematical edge that can offset. Plus you need to be guaranteed to execute the trade you ask for which most average joes don't have.

Facebook open-sourcing a more precise time server
How about the x2 series from Xilinx?
It comes from solarflare who have a long pedigree of low-latency smartnics. They used to supply Cloudflare, and also supply like 50% of fintechs/financial markets.
You can also just use openonload to accelerate your programs. In this case just doing straight linux socket programming, which can be accelerated without dpdk. Or just use the generic linux driver if necessary.
