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 true motives of Windows 11
Even my Haswell-E processor has continued getting microcode updates, and runs Windows 11.

On “I don't trust microcode”
They have been sort of cracked, but it doesn't matter. The web or chain of trust of those updates from the vendor to the processor is what matters. They're at least CRC checked to prevent loading corrupt files.

Google announces official Android support for RISC-V
Microcode in a cpu: It's already open source and is baked into a cpu. This is what is needed for a cpu to... cpu. (idk i'm not William Shockley)

Support for amd64 microcode updates - scoping work
Assuming that the microcode update files have been acquired (maybe from here or here?), bundled into a tgz as expected by pkg_add, and made available alongside other signed firmware packages, an OpenBSD install then needs to know to look for this firmware bundle.

There is no fix for Intel's crashing 13th/14th Gen CPUs – damage is permanent
So where is the microcode update? I don't see anything for Linux yet.

I Love Arch, but GNU Guix Is My New Distro
Is it anymore of a "magic incantation" than the linux-image-XYZ package which controls which OS kernel is installed?
If you want to see when Intel issues new microcode updates, it is all available on their GitHub: https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Dat...

CPU May Have Slowed Down on Wednesday
It isn't clear if Haswell has this optimization. As an easy test you could run the zero-fill-bench linked in the post and check the fill0 vs fill1 numbers. If they are the same, Haswell probably never had this optimization in the first place.
Based on the Intel microcode release note [1] it doesn't seem like client HSW got any update this time, only HSX (Haswell Xeon).
