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.

JITted lang which is faster than C?
It depends on the workload. LuaJIT is not always faster than C, but almost always in the same ballpark. Here is one example of LuaJIT being faster than gcc (albeit a bit synthetic in nature), and here is an example of LuaJIT being head-to-head with various C compilers.

Rust devs push back as Serde project ships precompiled binaries
The precompiled binary is not a sandboxed WASM binary. Despite the name "watt" it has nothing to do with https://github.com/dtolnay/watt . You can look at the actual code to see for yourself.

My first year with Rust: The good, the bad, the ugly
In addition to thiserror and anyhow, our resident superhuman Rust-improving Robot, dtolnay, also developed an experiment in distributing precompiled proc macros as WebAssembly named Watt and, though I never bothered to create a Zulip account so I don't know what was said, I'm told there has been discussion around the idea of implementing something in that vein.

Rust is coming to the Linux kernel
I think when we have Cranelift, Mold, and maybe Watt all working together then compile times will basically be a non-issue. It'll be a few years though.

Security advisory: malicious crate rustdecimal | Rust Blog
Check out https://github.com/dtolnay/watt - it's a really interesting solution to the problem!

Backdooring Rust crates for fun and profit
I really like the idea of Watt: https://github.com/dtolnay/watt Run macros in a wasm sandbox so they can't touch anything you don't explicitly allow.

NPM malware and what it could imply for Cargo
I really wish there was more interest in getting something like Watt upstreamed.
