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.

Record Patterns point to Java language designers losing their compass
Record patterns are one step on the path to general pattern matching utility. The bigger building block is general deconstructors. I recommend reading Functional Transformation of Immutable Objects by Brian Goetz. The idea of "withers" shown there requires deconstructors:

Where does the dislike/hate for Java come from?
This kind of pattern matching is discussed in the design notes: https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/site/design-notes/patterns/pattern-match-object-model.md

Making Lenses Practical in Java
True, but that only pushes the question of value down the line.
I'm curious about lenses because Java did have a serious problem that required a solution: working with "simple" data correctly was difficult. The chosen solution was ADTs, so we did buy into that. But the approach being explored for transforming records (https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/eg-drafts/...) only works one level at a time rather than for an entire path. So I wonder how valuable it would be to have a solution for paths. If the answer is that it's mostly valuable for an approach we haven't bought into yet, then we might not need to consider it just yet.

How I got involved in the Rust community
Just a heads up, something like that spread operator is actually coming sooner or later to java: https://github.com/openjdk/amber-docs/blob/master/eg-drafts/...
Pattern matching (for records) is already a preview feature.

JEP draft: Exception handling in switch
`Either foo()` and `Foo foo() throws MyError` and are pretty much isomorphic.

Project Valhalla: A look inside Java's epic refactor
Nice. So for example, it looks like Kotlin has a nearly identical feature at the language level which will be optimizable when Valhalla ships: https://github.com/Kotlin/KEEP/blob/master/notes/value-class...
> In the future, in a Valhalla-capable JVM, JVM primitive classes will enable efficient representation of Kotlin value classes with an arbitrary number of underlying fields on JVM.

Unchecked Java: Say Goodbye to Checked Exceptions Forever
Most other languages agree that checked exceptions are not good by not having them.
As for alternatives, Try/Result and similar monads have decent adoption even in Java, but personally I quite like the Kotlin philosophy [1] to not have generic error containers and either use runtime exceptions or make failures of the return type.
