Love the attitude, disagree with the content. Vue.js is “critical”? Rust is “Endangered”? Then I realized it’s not about the content - it’s a reflection on our obsession with chasing the new thing and declaring the recent thing dead.
Pretty bad. Stack-overflow and hackernews metrics don't work, python is considered 100% dead and 70% dead respectively. By trying to search in the page with control-f.. I voted for death? Reddit and youtube are not remotely reasonable proxies for project health. Naturally no one likes wordpress, but it runs like 40% of sites on the internet, and it's also 40% "dead", which seems wrong. Why is there a newsletter? My advice is to throw away all the social media garbage, including hackernews sentiments, focus on github metrics for commits, issues, and forks.. see if you can add anything new there
I put in the web framework that our company’s ecosystem is based on and it said “no results.” At first I thought this was part of the joke, but no, our tech is just beyond dead.
The execution is a little iffy. Deno is nowhere close to being dead, and Elm is intentionally frozen for stability. The website also appears to be quite laggy, especially the dropdown menu for sorting.
That being said, it's a really cool idea and I'm glad how open it is. This has the potential to become an authoritative and useful source for considering software stability and support.
Looks like a cool project. That said, it doesn't pass the sniff test on the methodology- Something like 30% of the score is just related to bitching and instability. Imagine a crazy world where maintainers/owners do a good job on serving their community and building good tech... clearly a death sentence
I'd probably go with adoption & activity spent building, but given the conversation seems like there might be a "tongue in cheek" aspect to this project ;)
According to this, Fortran may still be alive. Having written a lot of Fortran over the last decade, I knew Fortran is alive and well, but I would have though that this site would pick up the "Fortran is dead" meme from other places. Good on OP to recognize Fortran maybe isn't dead.
In my books, cordova is not dead. The name might have changed but its essence live in all other web-native hybrids out there (it's more alive than ever).
my phone drops from 120 to 60 Hz when my battery gets low, for a brief moment I thought that my phone is getting empty just to return to Hackernews and noticing how bad the performance of this site is, for an webapp that just shows names and some numbers
idk, but this website itself seems pretty dead to me.
It feels pretty laggy.
It cause my CPU to reach ~60% when simply hovering on items.
It is built with Nextjs 15.
It shows 1 result found and an empty list when I search Nextjs.
I don't know what's going on with this website, but it just slowed my browser to a complete halt, and I've never seen any website that did this. I had to restart Chrome but still have some serious performance issue.
