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.

The initial version of the /etc./magic file used by the file(1) command
I guess that makes https://justine.lol/ape.html and https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan hacks on top of a hack.

Ah yes, that famously lightweight way of distributing software, full on virtualised containers, each running an OS.

The Fastest Mutexes
Case in point:
https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/sysv/s...
The system call numbers of all the unixlikes are bitwise packed into a single number. There is exactly one of those columns which is stable: the Linux one. Everything else is not part of the binary interface of their respective operating systems.
I've written about how Linux is special in this regard:
https://www.matheusmoreira.com/articles/linux-system-calls
It's a neat hack but I'm afraid it's in grave danger of falling victim to the Darth Vader of OS ABI stability.

Cosmopolitan Libc makes C a build-once run-anywhere language, like Java, except it doesn't need an interpreter or virtual machine. Instead, it reconfigures stock GCC and Clang to output a POSIX-approved polyglot format that runs natively on Linux + Mac + Windows + FreeBSD + OpenBSD + NetBSD + BIOS with the best possible performance and the tiniest footprint imaginable. - Cosmopolitan 3.6.1
