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.

RFC: Sealed classes
I think there are thousands of other things to apply to PHP, rather than this, but if that's the way to go, well, the worse is nothing. Also just look at what https://docs.hhvm.com/ has and PHP doesn't, or go through LOLPHP.

Ask HN: State of PHP at Facebook
> Are there any large Hack codebases I can explore?
depends what you mean by 'large' - perhaps https://github.com/hhvm/user-documentation ?
> Does anyone know if FB tracks changes to PHP so Hack is "up to date"?
No, for the most part, Hack no longer considers PHP 'upstream'. Exceptions are things like security fixes to extension functions, if that particular extension function was derived from PHP.

PHP in 2021
> With Hack's extensive static type checking and even contexts / coeffects
Have you used contexts/coeffects?
My understanding is that it's still yet to be fully rolled out to WWW, and nobody outside FB has yet played around with it. IMO it still has some DX issues (https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/8828) and the examples given in documentation don't actually work in real life (https://github.com/hhvm/user-documentation/issues/1016).

Systemd, 10 years later: a historical and technical retrospective
I miss Systemd inside Docker containers so much. IMO, for an app, "one-process per container" is a huge pain and very messy. I have a massively popular software to back up that claim: https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker
I use phusion/baseimage-docker[1] right now, love every bit of it. Having the database, web server(nginx) and the java backend all in one place works beautifully.
The only pain point is having to write `runit` scripts for startup and shutdown for each service, hence the wish for Systemd inside containers.

Personal Support at Internet Scale
Discourse provides an open-source community forum. All Discourse posts are indexed by Google, which helps existing users find answers to common questions, and attracts new users through search. We self-host our Discourse forum at https://pipedream.com/community as a Docker container using the discourse-docker project.

PHP in 2021
End users love PHP because you copy the files into a folder.
That's certainly how people deployed web apps built by other people a decade ago, but these days isn't it more common to use something like Docker?
Deploying a containerized app should be pretty much the same no matter what language it's written in. And Discourse does have a Docker container (https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker), so I'm not sure the underlying language explains why it isn't popular.
