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).

Wax compiler – a tiny language designed to transpile to other languages
This remineds me of Haxe[1]. I like Wax better because of the Common-Lisp-like syntax.

Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball
I thought this was a three.js demo but it's actually built with a language called haxe [1]. I've never heard of this language before and looks really cool. Makes me want to play with it!

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
The Haxe programming language (https://haxe.org/). It's insane how unpopular this is compared to its value.
"Haxe can build cross-platform applications targeting JavaScript, C++, C#, Java, JVM, Python, Lua, PHP, Flash, and allows access to each platform's native capabilities. Haxe has its own VMs (HashLink and NekoVM) but can also run in interpreted mode."
It's mostly popular in game dev circles, and is used by: Nortgard, Dead Cells, Papers Please, ... .

Is this idea worth pursuing? (a common grammar interface for various interpreted languages written in C)
Sounds like haxe: https://haxe.org/

TC39 Proposal: Types as Comments
I really enjoyed programming in AS3, and https://haxe.org/ was really helpful at the time to make development easier.

TIL: "private_constant"
Been tinkering in the Haxe programming language recently. I definitely suggest checking it out, but one thing I liked was private constants. I know other languages have this, but its where I've encountered it most recently.
What are some alternatives?
HHVM - A virtual machine for executing programs written in Hack.
Nim - Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
