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.

Maestro: A Linux-compatible kernel in Rust
This feels like an ad; the blog post and the README feel like they were written to sound complicated and smart rather than tell the whole truth. Like, "On boot, the kernel has full access to the memory and is allowed to write where it should not (its own code, for example)"? Apart from the fact that ring 0 will always have full control, the MMU also exists. Also, the "48k" (the kernel has 34324 lines of non-comment code, the rest are in the other repos I assume) LOC are obvious when you consider code like src/syscall/mod.rs:717 is present.
To be fair, this is impressive, but its a basic monolithic kernel written for a school project, with the "twist" that it is in Rust and uses Linux syscalls.
For anyone who is interesting in more Rust UNIX-like kernels, Aero (https://github.com/Andy-Python-Programmer/aero) is farther ahead supports running quite a lot of recompiled Linux userspace, including dwm and WebKit.

Aero OS: A new modern operating system made in Rust, now able to run the Links browser, Alacritty and much more!
https://github.com/Andy-Python-Programmer/aero/blob/master/src/aero_kernel/src/mem/paging/addr.rs especially obvious, if you look at the first version of this file:

Aero, a new modern OS made in rust and is now able to run Xorg! :)
There is progress in implementing the DRM subsystem (cc https://github.com/Andy-Python-Programmer/aero/blob/master/src/aero_kernel/src/drivers/drm/mod.rs) but currently it only implements a small portion of the subsystem. But yea, this was one of the blocking points.
- Your one project with rust that you think is one of the best projects you have made.

Software Development Foundations - How to teach a 14 year old?
Get him to join the OSDev discord chat. Most of the people there started learning programming in the middle of the pandemic and are now building complex projects. Group is mostly kids his age, 12-16 year olds, learning to hack around. Like this 13 year old or this 15 year old.

Radxa's SATA HAT makes compact Pi 5 NAS
> The only non-junk PCIe3 option that's even advertised here recently is the overpriced WD Red SN700.
Those WD drives seem to have some real issues, at least with ZFS and btrfs. :(

DiskClick: Ever wanted to hear Old Hard drive sounds
IMO the "next fs" is just zfs. They somewhat recently merged RAIDZ expansion feature https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/12225 and make regular improvements. If no file system has what you need today, zfs will probably be the first one to have it "tomorrow," imo.

A data corruption bug in OpenZFS?
https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/15526#issuecomment-181...
> zpool get all tank | grep bclone
> kc3000 bcloneused 442M
> kc3000 bclonesaved 1.42G
> kc3000 bcloneratio 4.30x
> My understanding is this: If the result is 0 for both bcloneused and bclonesaved then it's safe to say that you don't have silent corruption.

Ask HN: What's your "it's not stupid if it works" story?
A couple years ago, I had an idea for convincing a filesystem to go faster using 2 compression steps instead of one. I couldn't see why it wouldn't work, and I also couldn't convince myself it should.
It seems to have worked out. [1]

ZFS Profiling on Arch Linux
https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/7631
This is a long-standing issue with zvols which affects overall system stability, and has no real solution as of yet.
