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.

Companies: We can't find any good candidates!!! Also companies:
Me in the interview: "Generally, no, a variable can only be assigned one numeric value at a time. However, Javascript is famous for unpredictable behaviors in variable comparison statements, for instance [] == ![]. There's actually a whole library built around documenting this type of behavior this for comedic value, and other more serious libraries geared towards solving the problem. So it's possible that some obscure variable assignment scenario would result in that line evaluating as true, but it's not something you'd expect to encounter in the real world. This has gotten a lot better with typescript and es2022, but still something you need to watch for a bit."

“Go is hard to justify unless at massive scale”
I do see that point of view, didn't think of that, there are some aspects of go which are a bit weird if you never touched lower abstraction languages, yet once you learn what they are, you are all set and you can code in anything. go has the least amount of gotchas I have seen in any programming language. compare it with loads of the weird stuff javascript does https://github.com/denysdovhan/wtfjs and go is like heavenly lol

Learning Frontend/React is the new rat race.
Its a very poorly designed language. Its syntax and semantics are often confusing and unpredictable. There is no well defined mental model of how constructs work in this language.

So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon
Boy, I can't find this either (but also, the kernel mailing list is _really_ difficult to search). I really remember Linus saying something like "it's not a real SCM, but maybe someone could build one on top of it someday" or something like that, but I cannot figure out how to find that.
You _can_ see, though, that in his first README, he refers to what he's building as not a "real SCM":

Do we think of Git commits as diffs, snapshots, and/or histories?
I understand all that.
I'm saying, if you write a survey and one of the possible answers is "diff", but you don't clearly define what you mean by "diff", then don't be surprised if respondents use any reasonable definition that makes sense to them. Ask an ambiguous question, get a mishmash of answers.
The thing that Git uses for packfiles is called a "delta" by Git, but it's also reasonable to call it a "diff". After all, Git's delta algorithm is "greatly inspired by parts of LibXDiff from Davide Libenzi"[1]. Not LibXDelta but LibXDiff.
Yes, how Git stores blobs (using deltas) is orthogonal to how Git uses blobs. But while that orthogonality is useful for reasoning about Git, it's not wrong to think of a commit as the totality of what Git does, including that optimization. (Some people, when learning Git, stumble over the way it's described as storing full copies, think it's wasteful. For them to wrap their heads around Git, they have to understand that the optimization exists. Which makes sense because Git probably wouldn't be practical if it lacked that optimization.)
The reason I'm bringing all this up is, if you're trying to explain Git, which is what the original article is about, then it's very important to keep in mind that someone who is learning Git needs to know what you mean when you say "diff". Most people who already know Git would tend to gravitate toward the definition of "diff" that you're assuming (the thing that Git computes on the fly and never stores), but people who already know Git aren't the target audience when you're teaching Git.

The bash book to rule them all
Yes, but you are referring to standalone scripts, not functions defined within a Bash script.
Compare for example the following helper code used for git command completion inside Bash and inside PowerShell.
