The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Fiber in C++: Understanding the Basics
https://github.com/boostorg/context/blob/6fa6d5c50d120e69b2d...
...and this causes problems, because it can't guarantee that all fields are initialized or switched successfully: https://lists.boost.org/boost-bugs/2014/10/38476.php
Microsoft continually adds and changes fields in the TIB with each new release of Windows. Attempting to implement fibers manually is a ticking time bomb that should never be used in production.

History of non-standard-layout class layouts
Marginally disagree. Lots of optimization work takes advantage of knowing how the ABI works. Knowing you can pass two register returns on SysV is a particularly common optimization point. Writing context switching routines that can be reliably ported (ex, boost-context) requires this consistency of ABI. As a final example, cache locality optimizations require the ability to reason about ABI layout.
