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.

Even the simplest possible assembly program will/can have a console window. How exactly?
You might find the source code for FreeDOS of interest for learning more about how the low-level access to the interrupt services worked. Specifically, console.asm installs a character write routine (which calls BIOS INT 10h under the hood).

Trying to run FreeDOS off CF Card on 286 homebrew system --- Question about bootloader and drive geometry information
Looking at https://github.com/FDOS/kernel/blob/master/boot/boot.asm, I see %define statements for this type of information, but I'm not sure how these memory locations are normally populated with proper values. Is this something that Sys does when preparing the CF card? Or should the BIOS populate this information when loading the boot loader?

"My Reaction to Dr. Stroustrup’s Recent Memory Safety Comments"
That's where I'm coming from. FreeDOS still gets occasional commits once per few months but is not really developed anymore. Watcom C still seems like it's actively developed, but it's not clear what they are trying to achieve if they are not even interested in what's happening in C/C++ world!

How to Port to ARM (Just Curious, not ready to do it yet)
Here's the code for the kernel https://github.com/FDOS/kernel/ You will have to entirely rewrite the Assembly code since it is x86 assembly (Netwide Assembler is great, but not for ARM). Namely boot code is assembly. The kernel does compile under multiple compilers. I'm not too sure if ARM platforms handle this, but I would look at the Linux kernel for boot code on ARM.

Are DOS utilities open source.
"DOS" is a little bit of a general term. Microsoft's product, MS-DOS, is not Free Software. But there are other implementations, including FreeDOS, which is compatible with MS-DOS.

Rust to .NET compiler – Progress update
> There are online Rust compilers and interpreters already if you just want to rapid prototype and develop ideas in Rust
You are responding to one of the key developers of Rust early on[1], who's been working with the language for 14 years at that point.
[1] https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/graphs/contributors?from=2... and he's still #16 in commits overall today, despite almost no activity on the rust compiler since 2014.

Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44650
This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/cve-2024-24576.html
Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

I hate Rust (programming language)
> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.
Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Show HN: Fancy-ANSI – Small JavaScript library for converting ANSI to HTML
Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.
To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/
