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.

CS251: Great Ideas in Theoretical Computer Science (CMU)
Nice!
If folks would like to learn these ideas by hand via programming, i highly recommend Tom Stuart's Understanding Computation From Simple Machines to Impossible Programs - https://computationbook.com/

Programming with Nothing
FYI there’s an (interpreted, not proc-encoded) implementation of this in computationbook.com, including compilation from lambda calculus: https://github.com/tomstuart/computationbook/tree/master/uni...
And also, as you imply, iota: https://github.com/tomstuart/computationbook/tree/master/uni...

It sounds you are asking about CS fundamentals. I recommend https://www.nand2tetris.org/

16-year-old Looking For Guidance
A few resources which you may want to check out, in roughly increasing order of difficulty:
- Free Code Camp: https://www.freecodecamp.org/
- CS50: https://cs50.harvard.edu/x/2023/
- How to Design Programs (HTDP): https://htdp.org/
- Nand2Tetris: https://www.nand2tetris.org/
These are geared towards making you a better programmer in general, though it won't necessarily bring you closer to an AI/ML career.
Also, math is pretty important if you want to get into AI and similar things. Even otherwise math is important; don't listen to people who say you can get by without the math! So, try to get a head start on probability, calculus, linear algebra etc.
Good luck!
Gosh, I'm embarrassed about what I was up to when I was 16.

I am confuddled
it may also help to see exactly how these numbers we've represented using circuitry are used by a computer. if you want a hands on approach, the projects in this book are the best intro to the inner workings of a computer i know of. this channel is also good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvJc9CZcvBc

The Worlds First FPGA N64
Diligent makes several boards for three educational market, prices in the sub-$200 range. (And the devices are small enough they can be used with the no-cost version of the AMD/Xilinx toolchain.)

For online courses, I've heard good things about Nand2Tetris but have not tried it myself.

How to start from scratch.. legit base zero
I've also been through the nand2tetris course as well with the accompanying textbook, and it will make you learn how a computer works from the ground up. You will need to learn some programming language before completing the second half of the course, though.
