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.

Microsoft Go 1.24 FIPS changes
>A number of companies must comply with them, for example as part of a broader FedRAMP compliance posture. (If that's not you, you can ignore this. Run!) [1]
Apparently this isn't me. Sounds like I'm correct in assuming it's security theater at best, and an avenue for new backdoors at worst.

Ada crate of the year 2024 announced
Yep, and even without dynamic memory management, Ada is not type-safe: https://www.enyo.de/fw/notes/ada-type-safety.html
Rust also has problems: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/25860

It Is Time to Standardize Principles and Practices for Software Memory Safety
The bug used by that repository [1] isn't the only one that can be used to escape the Safe Rust type system. There are a couple others I've tried [2] [3], and the Rust issue tracker currently lists 92 unsoundness bugs (though only some of them are general-purpose escapes), and that's only the ones we know about.
These bugs are not really a problem in practice though as long as the developer is not malicious. However, they are a problem for supply chain security or any case where the Rust source is fully untrusted.

Roc Rewrites the Compiler in Zig
Since at least 2018, there's been a planned upgrade to the borrow checker to permit certain patterns that it currently rejects [0]. Also since 2018, there's been an implementation of the new version (called Polonius) that can be enabled with an unstable compiler flag [1].
But it's 2025, and the new version still hasn't been enabled on stable Rust, since the Polonius implementation is seen as too slow for larger programs. A big goal of the types team since last year has been to reimplement a faster version within rustc [2].
I'd count this as a language feature (albeit a relatively minor one) that's been greatly deferred in favor of shorter compile times.

Rust's worst feature (available in Rust nightly)
> Is there evidence more baking won't happen?
No, actually there is a lot of evidence that it will still be worked on.
Normally I would just say look at the issue linked in the nightly docs but due to an overlap of tacking PR and moving it from std to core PR it's not supper useful.
Tracking Issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/78485
If the author has constructive critique they should probably mention it there (after skimming through the discussion to make sure this wasn't already considered and not done due to subtleties they overlooked in the blog post (like e.g. that it's a standard/core feature which has to work across all targets and as such can't rely on anything being initialized to 0 by the OS, or that depending on the global allocator used you definitely can't rely on things being zeroed even if the OS only hands out zeroed memory, etc. etc.))

I've been advocating for RSS support, and you should too
I recently had the need to subscribe to changes to a Github repo and it turns out it provides a feed for them. For rust master branch, for example, subscribe to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commits/master.atom.
