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.

GCC Rust Monthly Report #9 August 2021
It's true that if this project succeeds, that would be an outcome, but it's probably worth noting that you'd really only have to add support for the GCC backend to do that, and not reimplement the frontend as well (parsing, type checking, lifetime checking, etc.). There's an unrelated project working to do that: https://github.com/antoyo/rustc_codegen_gcc that would likely yield those same benefits for less effort.

Recursive fib is faster in C++?
Here's the gcc backend for rustc here https://github.com/antoyo/rustc_codegen_gcc Since this just swaps the optimizer/codegen module and reuses all the other stuff from rustc it needs less work and can already compile many valid rust programs.
-
Anyone used the gcc backend before?
I'd like to use the rustc_codegen_gcc backend to compile some Rust programs, but I'm confused about how to install and use the patched libgccjit dependency. I've downloaded the fork provided but don't know where to go from there.

The Tor Project announces Arti, a Tor implementation written in Rust from scratch
I was being a little sloppy and mixing together "actual embedded hardware" with "extensions for applications written in other languages" in my head. I think your point about LLVM is still accurate, though I hear peeps about different projects working on GCC support from time to time.
-
Rust GCC back end was officially accepted into the compiler
This doesn't have anything to do with using GCC to compile rust, but instead using rustc to compile Rust using the GCC backend. You can do that today by using the linked project, rustc_codegen_gcc, which is intended to be integrated into rustc at some point in the (hopefully near) future.
-
This is the patch series to add support for Rust as a second language to the Linux kernel.
Rather than mrustc you should probably look at rustc_codegen_gcc which uses gcc as a backend to rustc (WIP) or GCC Rust which tries to implement a rust frontend for gcc (also WIP). I think rustc_codegen_gcc looks the most promising at the moment

We build X.509 chains so you don't have to
Congratulations to the authors, this was a feature that was dearly missing from pyca/cryptography. It took a long time to get right.

“Our paying customers need X, when will you fix it?”
Some context:
- The cryptography dependency used by the current release of mitmproxy has a CVE related to an OpenSSL vulnerability (https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/security/advisories/GHS...)
- The main branch of mitmproxy has already upgraded to the latest version of the cryptography package
- The author of the package does not believe the CVE impacts users of mitmproxy so a release including this commit has not been made

Microservice memory profiling
first, I did see a correlation between an endpoint being heavily hit in a given time window, and an increase of memory usage that didn't went down afterwards. The endpoint didn't do much so I went through every instruction - is a global variable appended indefinitely ? Is a cache decorator growing without a limit set ? Do I use a 3rd party that has a known issue ? Turns out, it was using cryptography, so I looked up known issues. Saw an issue about a leak when using load_pem_x509_certificate https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/4833 - which I used ! I could fortunately just upgrade the library

[Python] Poésie vs Pipenv vs. pip-tools: Qu’utilisez-vous?

I love building a startup in Rust. I wouldn't pick it again
> A big problem with Rust, long-term, is that the kind of programs that really need it are somewhat out of today's mainstream. It's not that useful for webcrap. It's not that useful for phone apps. The AI people use Jupyter notebooks and Python to drive code on GPUs.
One thing this is missing is that Rust is useful for libraries callable by many different languages. You may or may not want to use it to build an actual Web app (I personally think it's a solid choice, but reasonable people can disagree). But for building, say, the Python cryptography library [1], which is used as a part of "webcrap" and Jupyter notebooks, Rust is clearly an excellent option. Nobody is going to build core Python infrastructure in Go or Node, and there will always be a need for plumbing libraries.

The impossible case of pitching rust in a web dev shop
Also, I see more and more examples where rust gets included in different technologies using FFI. Ie for python https://github.com/pyca/cryptography for security/performance critical pieces.

os independent way to convert ssl crt to pem
You will be hard pressed to find a cryptography library that doesn't depend on openssl. Fortunately openssl bindings can be installed on Windows. One of the more popular libraries for python is cryptography, but it does depend on libssl.
What are some alternatives?
