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.

Blog post: My perspective on RAII and memory management in C++ and Rust
GC'd languages are designed to leverage GCs, meaning they usually allocate a lot. Some of the more recent ones (C#, Go) have ways around it or to limit it, but in your average GC'd language you have to really bend yourself out of shape to limit allocations (IIRC the Ixy effort / study / thing never managed to make the Java hotpath allocation-free).

What are my prospects in web programming, if I don't like JS?
like not-even-in-the-same-ballpark faster. In this realworld example (userspace network drivers in managed languages) JS manages about 20-30% of native code performance, python iirc is below 1%

Don’t call it a comeback: Why Java is still champ
- Support for generic-aware value types (struct vs. class) and low-level features like stackalloc: very valuable for high-performance scenarios and native FFI. See for instance https://github.com/ixy-languages/ixy-languages. In comparison, Java doesn't even have unsigned integers. Yes, Project Valhalla is coming someday.
As well, debatable to some folks, but: properties (get/set); operator overloading; LINQ > Java streams; extension methods; default parameters; collection initializers; tuples; nullable reference types; a dozen smaller features

Why did you switch from another language to Rust? Do you regret not learning it earlier?

Bun - The One Tool for All Your JavaScript/Typescript Project's Needs?
NodeJS is by no means a slow runtime, it wouldn’t be so popular if it was. But compared to Bun, it’s slow. Bun was built from the ground up with speed in mind, using both JavascriptCore and Zig. The Bun team spent an enormous amount of time and energy trying to make Bun fast, including lots of profiling, benchmarking, and optimizations.

Bun 1.1
ntdll.dll!RtlUserThreadStart()
There are valid reasons to use APIs from NTDLL. Where I disagree with zig#1840 is the idea that it is always better to use NTDLL versions of API. Every other software ecosystem uses the standard Win32 APIs and diverging from that without a good reason seems like a good way to have unexpected behavior. One concrete example is most users and programmers expect Windows to redirect some file system paths when running on WOW64. But this is implemented in Kernel32, not ntdll.
