Is this repo dead? · Issue #297 · hundredrabbits/Orca
Seems to be a long time since any dev work happened here. Is this project dead? Just asking so I know whether to allocate time/energy into learning the system in case it will never be updated again...GitHub

in reply to R. L. Dane :debian: :openbsd: • • •It would be cool to do a "golden record"-style project at some point. Etch the uxn specs (including very basic descriptions of how binary and basic encodings work, in case future tech changes drastically) onto an aluminum plate using a cnc router, and include some sample programs as base64 ;)

I believe it. I've shared your "Weathering Software Winter" talk with everyone willing to listen. Which... isn't many.

in reply to Devine Lu Linvega • • •I wish this were any sort of one-off. Three of the metrics I was required to use by a former boss in evaluating dependencies (libraries or devtools) were
- GitHub/GitLab stars
- Frequency of commits
- Proportion of open to closed issues and PRs in the tracker
I still usually was able to make a case for something that hadn't seen dev work in 3mo. Sometimes even 6mo. If there hadn't been commits in >6mo to the main branch, that boss usually considered the tool abandonware
