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.

Basic SAT model of x86 instructions using Z3, autogenerated from Intel docs
You can use it to (mostly) validate small snippets are the same. See Alive2 for the application of Z3/formalization of programs as SMT for that [1]. As far as I'm aware there are some problems scaling up to arbitrarily sized programs due to a lack of formalization in higher level languages in addition to computational constraints. With a lot of time and effort it can be done though [2].

Verifying GCC optimizations using an SMT solver
Yeah, this kind of thing is nice.
Alive had been used for years (almost a decade actually) by people to verify LLVM instcombine transforms.
Alive2 (https://github.com/AliveToolkit/alive2) makes it easier to do the same with most optimization passes.

Programming in Z3 by learning to think like a compiler
Alive/Alive2 [1] is one of the most famous frameworks for compiler transformation verification using BitVec logic

What's your salary?
If you want a quick example of something you can do for educational purposes (but would be totally worthless for reality) I'd say go to llvm and implement your own instcombine pass. Follow this tutorial to learn the basics.
