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 on the MOS 6502: Beyond Fibonacci
The value add is not in the parts that interface with the C64 internals; probably using C for that would make for nicer code. But I wanted to push as much into Rust as I could in the short amount of time I spent on this.
The real advantage of using Rust is in the actual program logic. E.g. the instructions are decoded into an algebraic datatype (in https://github.com/gergoerdi/chirp8-engine/blob/7623353a8bf0...) and then that is consumed in the virtual CPU (https://github.com/gergoerdi/chirp8-engine/blob/7623353a8bf0...). Rust's case-of-case optimization takes care of avoiding the intermediate data representation at runtime.
