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.

How does one learn low latency programming?
I start with Heap-Layers by the UMass Plasma group. They've even built allocators on top of this which are worth considering.

Are We Modules Yet?
If you aren't aware of the c++ core guidelines[1] - it should be on your radar.
Also, it might not be a popular opinion, but I think Bjarne's books are just fine.

Toward a TypeScript for C++"
In addition to the other comments -
TypeScript deliberately takes a "good enough" approach to improving JavaScript, instead of designing an ideal but incompatible approach. For example, its handling of [function parameter bivariance](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/type-compatibil...) is unsound but works much better with the existing JavaScript ecosystem. By contrast, a more academic functional programming language would guarantee a sound type system but would be a huge shift from JavaScript.
By analogy, Herb Sutter is arguing that something like the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines), with tooling help in this new Cpp2 syntax, can bring real improvements to safety. Something like Rust's borrow checker would bring much stricter guarantees, backed by academic research and careful design, but would be incompatible and a huge adjustment.

MechE student here. Is there benefit to learning C in addition to C++, or can one do everything with C++ that can be done with C?

C++ is everywhere, but noone really talks about it. What are people's thoughts?
Take a look at Effective Modern c++ by Scott Meyers and the ISO c++ core guidelines. These resources are great for learning how to write better, more modern C++. I don't think it would be hard to grasp if you're already familiar with the language, just make sure to actually write some code which makes use of this stuff, otherwise it's easy to forget.

What are some C++ specific antipatterns that might be missed by C#/Java devs?
Look to the C++ Core Guidelines. It's not perfect, it has some flaws, including some sabotaging advice apparently adopted for political reasons. But at least it has some C++ authorities (Bjarne and Herb) as authors.
What are some alternatives?

Crafting Interpreters - Repository for the book "Crafting Interpreters"
PSRayTracing - A (modern) C++ implementation of the Peter Shirley Ray Tracing mini-books (https://raytracing.github.io). Features a clean project structure, perf. improvements (compared to the original code), multi-core rendering, and more.
github-cheat-sheet - A list of cool features of Git and GitHub.
memorymanager - A simple, thread-safe memory manager for 64bit C++ applications and games. Focus is on preventing heap fragmentation in the absence of good virtual memory management, at the cost of wasting some memory. It works by globally overriding the new and delete operators.
