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.

Whats your most salient lines of code

If I'm off the clock, it doesn't bother me.
Also since it's file based it's easy to back up. Just drop the top folder in google drive or whatever. I have one dedicated to a side project I'm working on, so I committed the entire vault to github. Since they are markdown files some of them look ok, but there's a lot of syntax that will look wrong outside of obsidian.

I have complicated feelings about TDD
I'm probably misusing the name, but to me it means this. I don't have a solid idea for a client yet for my game server. I haven't tested too much by hand - instead I used integration tests for everything.

a temporary update
Actually the project idea came to me 8-10 years ago! While directly the answer is no, I am still working on a variety of side projects that cover pieces that I need to assemble the overall game. My github has also been pruned a bit, but here's the last for the main game effort. .hack is a big inspiration for me and the chaos gate will be a crucial point for the main game.

Carbon Language: An experimental successor to C++
What language would you use to build a server? I've been using go for a while and have enjoyed using the different emerging frameworks and even just the standard packages.

Crubit: C++/Rust Bidirectional Interop Tool

The Unicode Consortium announces ICU4X 1.0, its new high-performance internationalization library. It's written in Rust, with official C++ and JavaScript wrappers available.
autocxx is good, though crubit is aiming for direct bidirectional interop

Programming languages endorsed for server-side use at Meta
The areas you mentioned (CLI, web services, low level systems programming) are not mutually exclusive. Doing a good job on one doesn't mean something else is affected.
The folks who worked on the most popular command line argument parser (https://docs.rs/clap/latest/clap/#example) made a positive contribution that didn't detract from any other use case.
Similarly, the folks working on improving Rust for web services will also make it better for systems programming. In a blog post published today (https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2022/07/27/keyword-ge...), they discuss keyword generics, a feature that will be equally helpful for `async` code and `const` functions evaluated at compile time.
There is already some interoperability with C++ (http://cxx.rs) and ongoing research into automating this interoperability (https://github.com/google/autocxx, https://github.com/google/crubit). Feels like there's enough effort

Carbon Language: An experimental successor to C++
This language was started by folks at Google. (Although it's interesting that they're publishing it under a separate github org, which suggests ambitions beyond Google's needs.) Google has a huge, performance-sensitive C++ codebase. At Google, major product teams' backends are typically written in C++, as well as common infrastructure like D (disk server), Colossus (distributed filesystem), Spanner (distributed SQL database), and Borg (cluster management). More than a few people would love for it all to be be written in Rust instead, but migration would be challenging, to say the least. I'm told people are looking into it—see Crubit for example. But AFAIK, no one's decided yet whether Google will stay with C++ for all these things, migrate some to Rust, migrate some to Carbon, and/or do something else entirely.
It's currently unclear if Rust can interop with C++ with high fidelity. For example https://docs.rs/moveit/latest/moveit/ and https://github.com/google/crubit/blob/main/rs_bindings_from_... provide functionality to use non-trivially relocatable C++ types from Rust.
