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.

Don't waste money on a math coprocessor they said;
K5/Cyrix could overlap Integer and FPU operations, what they couldnt do was interleave (pipeline) FPU operations so that multiple floating point instructions ran in parallel.

Here a non perspective correction related Quake FPU code example https://github.com/id-Software/Quake/blob/bf4ac424ce754894ac...
Lcliploop: - Quake's lightning gun bug explained
- Can one create games on a low end pc?

Honestly don't understand why people keep buying from them
Quake seriously wasn't any more complicated. The only thing about Quake that really made it stand out was its 3D engine which, while revolutionary for its time, was basically stone-age technology by modern standards.
- How can i compile a modified source of quake?

Get in nerd, we're going fragging (1999)
You can also read this very old CPMA code that reimplements bunny hopping into Quake 3, a link I'm able to dig up because I have also been playing since literally the first one came out.
- Free as in freedom
- Is it possible to create a raycast game with rooms above rooms?

I checked this out too, https://github.com/id-Software/Quake expands to a 12.3MB directory for me (excluding .git/, which is another 3MB or so).
Quake-2

Source code for Quake 2 rerelease
> Glad to see the source code released!
In case you were unaware, this is actually the source code of the rerelease of Quake II. The source code for the original Quake II has been released for many years[0], along with many of the id Software classics[1].

- Someone dropped the source code for Far Cry 1 on archive.org
- I fully support this.

What are some source codes to have read, and why?
I really enjoyed reading the Quake and Quake 2 source code, personally https://github.com/id-Software/Quake-2
- Ask HN: What piece of code/codebase blew your mind when you saw it?
-
What would you have gotten once you licensed the Quake engine in the late 90s?
Does ID provide you the full source code (as it is now on Github)?
- What was the "old," way of doing 3D graphics before shaders? (fixed function pipelines and such)
- are there tutorials for code organization for games in C?
- Interesting Halo 3 script comments.
-
If you license your code as GPL, and Assets as CC-BY-NC-SA, what license do you then use for the compiled binary?
There's nothing stopping your from putting your code under GPL and your assets under copyright (no permissive license) or public domain. Code and assets don't need to be under the same license. See how id did it:
