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.

Why is AMD leaving ML to nVidia?
For myself, I use Julia to write my own software (that is run on AMD supercomputer) on Fedora system, using 6800XT. For my experience, everything worked nicely. To install you need to install rocm-opencl package with dnf, AMD Julia package (AMDGPU.jl), add yourself to video group and you are good to go. Also, Julia's KernelAbstractions.jl is a good to have, when writing portable code.

Cuda.jl v3.3: union types, debug info, graph APIs
For kernel programming, https://github.com/JuliaGPU/KernelAbstractions.jl (shortened to KA) is what the JuliaGPU team has been developing as a unified programming interface for GPUs of any flavor. It's not significantly different from the (basically identical) interfaces exposed by CUDA.jl and AMDGPU.jl, so it's easy to transition to. I think the event system in KA is also far superior to CUDA's native synchronization system, since it allows one to easily express graphs of dependencies between kernels and data transfers.

Potential of the Julia programming language for high energy physics computing
Yes, julia can be called from other languages rather easily, Julia functions can be exposed and called with a C-like ABI [1], and then there's also various packages for languages like Python [2] or R [3] to call Julia code.
With PackageCompiler.jl [4] you can even make AOT compiled standalone binaries, though these are rather large. They've shrunk a fair amount in recent releases, but they're still a lot of low hanging fruit to make the compiled binaries smaller, and some manual work you can do like removing LLVM and filtering stdlibs when they're not needed.
Work is also happening on a more stable / mature system that acts like StaticCompiler.jl [5] except provided by the base language and people who are more experienced in the compiler (i.e. not a janky prototype)

Julia App Deployment
PackageCompiler, but it' s a fat runtime and not cross compile. A thin runtime is currently not possible without sacrifices for feature as https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl.

Size of a "hello world" application
I just read the project's documentation at https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl. It does produce a "hello world" application that is only 8.4k in size đź‘Ť. I do like that it can work on Mac OS. Hopefully Windows support will come soon.

Julia for health physics/radiation detection
You're probably dancing around the edges of what [PackageCompiler.jl](https://github.com/JuliaLang/PackageCompiler.jl) is capable of targeting. There are a few new capabilities coming online, namely [separating codegen from runtime](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/41936) and [compiling small static binaries](https://github.com/tshort/StaticCompiler.jl), but you're likely to hit some snags on the bleeding edge.
