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.

Any standard algorithms for parsing (disassembling) machine code?
Back in the day, I wrote this x86 emulator just for fun: https://github.com/ForceBru/PyVM, and to this day, my implementation of instruction parsing (disassembly) is bugging me because it's a mess and doesn't seem correct at all, even though it kind of works. However, after a couple of years of occasionally trying to find some kind of "proper" algorithm for machine code disassembly, I couldn't find anything... noteworthy, or well-known, or widely used.

BAP (https://github.com/binaryanalysisplatform/bap), angr (https://angr.io/) and others already do what you're asking for as more purpose-built solutions for dynamic analysis. Angr specifically in python.
- You need to stop idolizing programming languages.

Starting ocaml
I find this pretty good https://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs3110/2019sp/textbook/intro/ocaml.html. Fun projects include compilers (pattern matching and static types are why Ocaml is usually selected), binary analysis stuff https://github.com/BinaryAnalysisPlatform/bap, stuff that requires async so you can try out nomadic async stuff, or really anything you desire.
What are some alternatives?
