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.

Memory leak proof every C program
Hilarious!
But I remember the first time I saw such a program which never freed anything: jitterbug, the simple bug tracker which ran as a CGI script.
It indeed allows a very simple style!
Meanwhile, use ccan/tal (https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/tal/_i...) and be happy :)

[ROAST MY CODE] Implementing generic vector in C
This is a great learning exercise but not very useful because using void* creates practical problems that the compiler cant help you with. IMHO, for a nice vector in C look at https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/darray/darray.h

Toward a better list iterator for the Linux kernel
For more advanced intrusive lists in C, I've found that ccan's tlist2 (https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/tlist2...) provides a decent model here.
Compared to the linux kernel's intrusive lists, it also tracks the offset of the list_node within the structure contained by the list, which eliminates another class of problems. It does still have the "using the iterator after the for loop is over" issue discussed in this article, but it also already tracks the types as Linus proposed doing in the article to resolve the issue.

Good C Source Code
ccan library https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan I think it is used also in the linux kernel(?)

What are your favorite C resources? They can be either for learning or reference.
ccan (analagous to cpan, but for C rather than Perl.)

Dynamic link list
You could use a discriminated union in your list node. You could use a void pointer in your list node, allocate space as needed and memcpy the date into this space, or don't allocate and store pointers to the original data. You could use an intrusive list, like this.

The Byte Order Fiasco
The fallacy in the article is that anyone should code these functions. There's plenty of public domain libraries that do this correctly.

A Love Letter to Intellectualism
gnu.org - contains everything you need to research his philosophy.
stallman.org - personal website, contains a lot of opinion, but I absolutely respect this man in all what he says.
emacs.org (redirects to https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/) - his non-philosophical work, one of two mainstream console text editors.

The KGB, the Computer and Me – The Cuckoo's Egg Story [video]
Forever, there was a file included in stock Emacs, `spook.el`, which could be hooked up to automatically add random strings of "interesting" keywords to each of your email or Usenet messages (in signatures, or in headers like `X-Spook`).
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Ma...
Looks like copyright date of 1988:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/play/...
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/etc/spook....
Try `M-x spook RET` in an Emacs buffer.

How to combine daily journal with general database of people, places, things, etc.
If you want to spare a couple of detours, you probably could start with Emacs Org-mode according to Greenspun's eleventh rule: "Any sufficiently complicated PIM or note-taking program contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Org mode."

Using Common Lisp in Emacs
The whole cl-lib thing is a total disaster:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/emacs...
They added cl- as a prefix to each Common Lisp symbol.
FIRST is now called cl-first, CAAAR is now cl-caaar .
I would really prefer if GNU Emacs removes all Common Lisp functionality, instead of creating this really wacky stuff, with discussions about this topic every year.

Proof of Concept clang plugin that automatically binds C/C++ -> Lua
Their DEFUN and DEFVAR macros for example let us define a function or a variable that will be available as a Lisp function, and can be used as an ordinary C function from the C code. Emacs is written in pure C99 language and works with both GCC and Clang I believe. We can just define a C function via macro, and it is auto exported and made available to Lisp. For example my first patch to Emacs was for this function (we added "count" argument to make it possible to skip enumerating files in a directory for the case when user code is just interesting if a directory is empty or not):
