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.

What are the current hot topics in type theory and static analysis?
I would add that Equality saturation/E-graphs has become quite a hot topic recently, since their POPL21 paper, with workshops dedicated to applications of e-graphs. They have even recently been added to Cranelift as an IR for optimizations.

Blog Post: Next Rust Compiler
I think with Cranelift's investment into an e-graph based optimizer (https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/blob/main/accepted/cranelift-egraph.md) they are well positioned to have quite competitive performance as a backend.

They're also actively working in this area, for example the recently added equality saturation framework and the pattern matching DSL it builds on.

Wasmtime Reaches 1.0: Fast, Safe and Production Ready!
There's an RFC here: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/28 and Saúl Cabrera, the person who is leading this effort and implementing the compiler tier, has a work-in-progress draft PR here: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/4907

What are the current hot topics in type theory and static analysis?
Secure computing. This includes Fully Homomorphic Encryption AKA FHE, of which there is a language/compiler which just got released and Google's older FHE compiler. FHE is probably more "compiler" than "type system", e.g. Google's compiler works on C++. Also Security Type Systems which include Oblivious data structures and Oblivious ADTs.

Ask HN: Should we follow what impresses us?
I don't have any advice for you, but I do work on homomorphic encryption at Google and we have an FHE compiler project [1] (though it is likely going to change a lot in the coming year). I happen to have a math PhD, so the transition to this field was not a huge stretch, but before that I worked in supply chain optimization for data centers, and just decided this was too exciting to pass up.

Spiral’s Homomorphic Encryption – Is This the Future of Privacy?
+1, and some compilers already exist to do that for you. See, e.g., Google's compiler (which I work on). https://github.com/google/fully-homomorphic-encryption

We’re Christian Mouchet, Jean-Philippe Bossuat, Kurt Rohloff, Nigel Smart, Pascal Paillier, Rand Hindi, Wonkyung Jung, various researchers and library developers of homomorphic encryption to answer questions about homomorphic encryption and why it’s important for the future of data privacy! AMA
Once the tools are written, you should be able to take a program written in some language foo and transpile it to a FHE version of foo. See Google's C++ to FHE-C++ transpiler. Thus, you can test/debug your application without FHE before transpiling to something that is FHE.

HElib - HElib is an open-source software library that implements homomorphic encryption. It supports the BGV scheme with bootstrapping and the Approximate Number CKKS scheme. HElib also includes optimizations for efficient homomorphic evaluation, focusing on effective use of ciphertext packing techniques and on the Gentry-Halevi-Smart optimizations.
