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.

Jack Dorsey has set a 1 billion sats (10 bitcoin) bounty for a permissionless alternative to GitHub based on Nostr
GIT is decentralized by its nature. GitHub is used to centralize the source of truth for all developers which create consensus on production code for example. Source of truth can be defined as the code that is currently running in production on arbitrary machines. So one can define by the protocol that production code is actually an Urbit ship and the SVM updates the ship in place. Merges, pull requests, etc is governed with a DAO.

I Don't See the Appeal of Crypto
Ethereum. The broadly useful, turing-complete version of Bitcoin. It has a community of developers building it and building on it, and as it grows and layer-2 scaling solutions — secondary blockchains that "settle" to Ethereum, making mild concessions on the hardness axis in exchange for a huge speed increase — the appeal and power of decentralized "smart contracts" will become more and more obvious. Just for one example, Urbit uses a set of Ethereum smart contracts to manage their decentralized PKI (public key infrastructure) system.

?., which reverses q and r.
Hoon code is rather interesting to look at, especially the rune vs keyword syntax (random file: https://github.com/urbit/urbit/blob/master/pkg/arvo/lib/aqua...) but I don't think it's worth the effort.

Escaping Surveillance Capitalism, at Scale
I really thought this article was going to offer a solution, not just enumerate the problems. I'm already all too familiar with the problems.
I like what Umbrel[0] is doing. They're essentially expecting that just like computing was able to move from centralized mainframes to homes, servers are poised to make the same migration.
I think they really need to solve redundancy, though. If I'm to self-host anything important on a home server, I need to know I'll have some way to use it even if my home server fails, especially if I'm not at home when it happens.
I'd love to see some kind of system where I could partner up with other Umbrel users for backups/the ability to restore connectivity. If I knew that in an emergency, I could call my friend in town or my brother out of state and there was some procedure that would allow me to connect to an encrypted backup of what I'm needing, I would feel a lot better about taking responsibility for my own system.
