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.

GNU Units
Anything with a finite (200 is small even) number of units misses the algebraic structure of the problem mentioned in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36988497 wherein multiplying|dividing two things gives you a (potentially) new unit which implies an open ended "space" of units.
To be concrete (hah!), in C++ a template meta-type with 12 signed integer parameters (6 numerators & 6 denominators for rational exponents of SI base units) might be one way to model it.
Unlike C++ template stuff, Nim macros (like Lisp macros) makes metaprogramming more like procedural programming - just against abstract syntax trees. I think that helps to shield some of this type complexity from users, but the documentation README https://github.com/SciNim/Unchained does better job than I can in an HN comment.
Of course, for unit system conversion, the number of dimensions (6 in SI, 3 in CGS/Gaussian) changes. So, for full generality you need compile-time (if you want static type integration/CT errors) linear algebra over a rational field (at least & conventionally) to project|inverse project. That might be theoretically possible in C++. I would think it very un-fun and unlikely to ever have been done. There's probably a Mathematica package, though.

Atlas, a (hopefully) better engineering IDE
I've recently written a units library for Nim [0]. It's still WIP, but it's already proven extremely useful for me as a physicist.
Thanks to Nim's strong type system and metaprogramming features, it allows for a fully compile time design, without any runtime overhead (in form of special unit objects or such things; everything is a `distinct float`).
In addition Nim's unicode support, the code even looks nice!
A more complex use case (I can link more if desired): [1]

moment.net: call for localization contributions
What does moment.net do better then a combination of (Humanizer)[https://github.com/Humanizr/Humanizer#humanize-datetime] and (NodaTime)[https://nodatime.org/]

JDK 19 released
.NET's DateTime isn't amazing, it's true, but I think there's been some small improvements in that area recently. If you need something more robust, you can always reach for Noda Time.

The counter was reset today, we were almost into the double digits
Do you .NET programmers have a moment to talk about my personal Lord and Savior NodaTime? https://nodatime.org/ There is one datetime library, and Jon Skeet is His messenger.
