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.

A brief introduction to esoteric programming languages
One of my favorite esolangs is FRACTRAN[0], because at first glance it seems impossible to write any programs in, but a little insight from number theory (concerning prime factorization) makes it tractable. I even wrote a compiler for FRACTRAN in Haskell[1].

Early Lisp Part II (Apply Redux)
The Scheme dialect of Lisp is perhaps my favorite for how small the core is (and hygienic macros are an elegant solution to avoiding accidental captures). The R5RS language report also specifies the formal denotational semantics of the language. But it's also more precise than McCarthy's presentation, the denotational semantics can be easily turned into a real, correct-by-construction interpreter[0].
