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.

The Haskell job market has been growing steaily since 2008
We used reflex-frp, so our app was a webview that worked on localhost and Android. The docs say it also works on iOS but we don't have an iPhone.
The process was learning Functional Reactive Programming, then learning reflex-frp, then getting a contract with obsidian (creators of reflex) for one hour a week where we could ask questions.

We had a grant requirement to create a phone client for Tahoe-LAFS, a Python application with a bunch of dependencies, including ZFEC, a forward error correction library.
( https://tahoe-lafs.readthedocs.io/ )
( https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/zfec/ )
We needed bug for bug compatibility with the Python codebase, so I ran Tahoe on localhost and tested the Haskell client against the Python server. We used servant to build the API, since it builds both client and server side from the same description.

Xz format considered inadequate for long-term archiving
I disagree with the premise of the article. Archive formats are all inadequate for long-term resilience and making them adequate would be a violation of the “do one thing and do it right” principle.
To support resilience, you don’t need an alternative to xz, you need hashes and forward error correction. Specifically, compress your file using xz for high compression ratio, optionally encrypt it, then take a SHA-256 hash to be used for detecting errors, then generate parity files using PAR[1] or zfec[2] to correct errors.

Ask HN: What is your approach for managing personal digital assets?
I religiously use Google contacts. It's the simplest way to keep people contacts up to date on Android.
I archive all important documents in specific folders by subject and date. This is backed up to back blaze with restic. https://restic.net/
I use https://ente.io for pictures. I convinced my wife to use it, and she agreed to auto share her photos so I don't nag her for copies. It had simple import from Facebook and Google.
I also keep extensive journals, which really helps to tie it all together. I can basically grep for hangouts, conversations, etc.
I also separate work journal from personal, and have essentially a journal for each project. https://jodavaho.io/tags/bullet-journal.html for how.
I religiously use Google calendar for all plans, you can easily search it for past events to get dates.
I also use monicahq for some notes about things I should remember about people but the habit never stuck.

Duplicity
After Borg, I switched to Restic:
https://restic.net/
AFAIK, the only difference is that Restic doesn't require Restic installed on the remote server, so you can efficiently backup to things like S3 or FTP. Other than that, both are fantastic.

I'm curious, too. I know they've had some issues in the past:
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/3268#issuecomment-78...
On the other hand, I tested around 15,000 backups last year (multiple hourly backups, daily tests) and they all passed.

best backup for ubuntu ?
I use and recommend restic. I use it for about 60 machines on my LAN, and it's absolutely fantastic.
What are some alternatives?
pixz - Parallel, indexed xz compressor
BorgBackup - Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption.
zpaqlpy - Compiles a zpaqlpy source file (a Python-subset) to a ZPAQ configuration file for usage with zpaqd
Duplicati - Store securely encrypted backups in the cloud!
reflex-platform - A curated package set and set of tools that let you build Haskell packages so they can run on a variety of platforms. reflex-platform is built on top of the nix package manager.
Duplicity - Unnoficial fork of Duplicity - Bandwidth Efficient Encrypted Backup
fossa-action - The action sets up and caches the latest release of fossa-cli, infer the correct configuration from the current system state, analyze the project for a list of its dependencies, and upload the results to FOSSA.
kopia - Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included.
