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.

Comparing Strings (Street Names) With Machine Learning
When comparing strings (in our case street names), there are plenty of off-the-shelf features that can be used, such as those provided by the jellyfish. This package also provides a number of phonetic encodings. We can combine an encoding with a metric, such as Levenshtein Distance, to measure the phonetic similarity between two street names.

How to match names which differ slightly?
You can use a library like jellyfish which implements a bunch of string comparison algorithms, you'd just have to experiment and see which one gives the best results for you. I think I've had the best luck with Jaro-Winkler, then looking at the % match result and picking a cutoff above which I have good confidence that the match is real. It's still not perfect, and I really don't see how your last example would work with just about any automated comparison.

Ask HN: Could you show your personal blog here?
Unlike many people here, I don't like to write hundreds of mediocre posts. Instead, I prefer very few posts, that unfortunately are still mediocre.
If you're tired of all the perfection that exists on the internet, where every piece is deeply insightful and changes your life, I'd encourage you to read my articles, which only promise to shorten it:

Short, friendly base32 slugs from timestamps
I use shortuuid[0] for that stuff, which also omits the capital letter I, and has some other niceties (I wrote the library). It works really well, and I like how small the IDs are.
