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.

Is there something like "super-safe" rust?
findpanics is also unmaintained, but a couple of years younger.
-
Is Rust really safe? How to identify functions that can potentially cause panic
Try findpanics (https://github.com/philipc/findpanics) instead. It's also unmaintained, but several years more recent.

My thoughts on Rust and C++
That's fair. I think I may just be a bit sore that Rustig was allowed to bit-rot and findpanics hasn't seen a commit since 2020.
- What improvements would you like to see in Rust or what design choices do you wish were reconsidered?
-
What's your strategy for checking that your code is panic free?
The approaches I've seen (Rustig, findpanics, no-panic, dont_panic) tend to be based around using whole-program analysis on the generated output binary to determine what's calling the panic machinery once the optimizers have had their way with it.

Sustainability with Rust
It's a shame that Rustig is unmaintained. I haven't had a chance to try findpanics yet, but it may be a good runner-up.

Cpp2 and cppfront – An experimental 'C++ syntax 2' and its first compiler
The roadmap for Carbon [0] mentions wanting to have basic, non-trivial programs written in Carbon by the end of 2024. They're aiming for a v0.1 release in 2025. If it gains traction, they're aiming for a v1.0 beyond 2027.
I don't think anyone outside Google will seriously adopt this before it reaches v1.0. Even within Google, they may choose other options.

Odin Programming Language
Carbon was started by Chandler Carruth, at Google, but they wanted to move it to broader governance quickly. It's not under the Google GitHub today, but its own org.

C++ Should Be C++
What do you think about Carbon[1]? I am hopeful.

next year 0.1 will be usable, 1.0 is about 3 years away, sigh, back to my rust fight
