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.

Rust vs Zig Benchmarks
Long story short, heap allocation is painfully slow. Any sort of malloc will always be slower than a custom pool or a bump allocator, because it has a lot more context to deal with.
Rust makes it especially hard to use custom allocators, see bumpalo for example [0]. To be fair, progress is being made in this area [1].
Theoretically one can use a "handle table" as a replacement for pools, you can find relevant discussion at [2].

Rust Memory Management
There are ways to accomplish this as well. Different allocator libraries exist for this kind of scenario, namely bumpallo which allocates a larger block of memory from the kernel, and allocates quickly thereafter. That would amortize the cost of memory allocations in the way I think you're after?
- Custom allocators in Rust

A C Programmers take on Rust.
Meaning, storing a lot of things in the same block of allocated memory? Vec is a thing, you know. There's also a bump allocator library.
-
Hypothetical scenario - What would be better - C, C++ or Rust? (Read desc.)
There are data structures like slotmap, and relatively low-level crates like bumpalo. This is not to say that either fits your use case, just that you definitely have access to the necessary parts to fit what you describe.

Implementing "Drop" manually to show progress
Sometimes you can put everything in a bump allocator, then when you're done, free the entire bump allocator in one go. https://docs.rs/bumpalo/

Any languages doing anything interesting with allocators?
This is useful with crates like bumpalo which give you bump-allocation arenas whose lifetimes are tied to the objects they allocate.

I’m Porting the TypeScript Type Checker Tsc to Go
TSC doesn't need to "stick around", right? Just a run-once and the program is over?
In those cases, https://github.com/fitzgen/bumpalo works amazingly as an arena. You can pretty much forget about reference counting and have direct references everywhere in your graph. The disadvantage is that it's hard to modify your tree without leaving memory around.
We use it extensively in http://github.com/dioxusLabs/dioxus and don't need to worry about Rc anywhere in the graph/diffing code.

Allocating many Boxes at once
Probably bumpalo, but then its Box will have a lifetime parameter - bumpalo::boxed::Box<'a, dyn MyTrait>

Graydon Hoare: What's next for language design? (2017)
Strictly speaking, Rust doesn't need this as a built-in language feature, because its design allows it to be implemented as a third-party library: https://docs.rs/bumpalo
The biggest problem is that there's some awkwardness around RAII; I'm not sure whether that could have been avoided with a different approach.
Of course, ideally you'd want it to be compatible with the standard-library APIs that allocate. This is implemented, but is not yet at the point where they're sure they won't want to make backwards-incompatible changes to it, so you can only use it on nightly. https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/alloc/trait.Allocator.h...
Or are you suggesting that the choice of allocator should be dynamically scoped, so that allocations that occur while the bump allocator is alive automatically use it even if they're in code that doesn't know about it? I think it's not possible for that to be memory-safe; all allocations using the bump allocator need to know about its lifetime, so that they can be sure not to outlive it, which would cause use-after-free bugs. I'm assuming that Odin just makes the programmer responsible for this, and if they get it wrong then memory corruption might occur; for a memory-safe language like Rust, that's not acceptable.

JSR Is Not Another Package Manager
Regular expressions are part of the language, so it's not so unreasonable that TypeScript should parse them and take their semantics into account. Indeed, TypeScript 5.5 will include [new support for syntax checking of regular expressions](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/55600), and presumably they'll eventually be able to solve the problem the GP highlighted on top of those foundations.

TypeScript Essentials: Distinguishing Types with Branding
Dedicated syntax for creating unique subsets of a type that denote a particular refinement is a longstanding ask[2] - and very useful, we've experimented with implementations.[3]
I don't think it has any relation to runtime type checking at all. It's refinement types, [4] or newtypes[5] depending on the details and how you shape it.

Smart Contract Programming Languages: sCrypt vs. Solidity
Learning Curve and Developer Tooling sCrypt is an embedded Domain Specific Language (eDSL) based on TypeScript. It is strictly a subset of TypeScript, so all sCrypt code is valid TypeScript. TypeScript is chosen as the host language because it provides an easy, familiar language (JavaScript), but with type safety. There’s an abundance of learning materials available for TypeScript and thus sCrypt, including online tutorials, courses, documentation, and community support. This makes it relatively easy for beginners to start learning. It also has a vast ecosystem with numerous libraries and frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue) that can simplify development and integration with Web2 applications.

Understanding the Difference Between Type and Interface in TypeScript
As a JavaScript or TypeScript developer, you might have come across the terms type and interface when working with complex data structures or defining custom types. While both serve similar purposes, they have distinct characteristics that influence when to use them. In this blog post, we'll delve into the differences between types and interfaces in TypeScript, providing examples to aid your understanding.

How to scrape Amazon products
In this guide, we'll be extracting information from Amazon product pages using the power of TypeScript in combination with the Cheerio and Crawlee libraries. We'll explore how to retrieve and extract detailed product data such as titles, prices, image URLs, and more from Amazon's vast marketplace. We'll also discuss handling potential blocking issues that may arise during the scraping process.
