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.

Pass: The standard Unix password manager
I don't use pass myself (I have severe NIH[1]), but its design has inspired me many times over: very, very few tools rise to the challenge of adhering to the Unix philosophy without cargo-culting it, and pass is one of them. I highly recommend that people looking to write engineer-friendly tools study its manpage[2].

Ask HN: What Are You Working On?
Two things:
* (Yet another) password and secret manager, using modern cryptographic libraries (age) and with a strong emphasis on customizability[1]. I personally use it as a general purpose secret store for everything from passwords to command snippets.
* A tool that runs commands when USB devices are inserted or removed, allowing a user to write filters against a variety of device metadata. The end goal is something similar to udev rules, but much nicer to configure and cross-platform. Still unreleased.

Recreating Real-World Terrain with React, Three.js and WebGL Shaders
Nice writeup, I always like it when the shaders are highlighted like this. I got started in a similar way 7 years ago and have been making 3D terrains with THREE.js & WebGL since.
The real fun begins when you need to implement some sort of Level-of-Detail system and streaming in data to give the illusion of high detail everywhere without sacrificing performance.
Last year I released an open-source framework (https://github.com/felixpalmer/procedural-gl-js) for creating 3D terrains for web applications, you can see Uluru here: https://www.procedural.eu/map/?longitude=131.036&latitude=-2... (unfortunately the aerial imagery from our default provider isn't as high resolution as other places in Europe)

Visualization of 40M Cell Towers
Great visualization and approach with compressing the tile data. Do you have a comparison of how much smaller the payload ends up being compared to simply sending PNG files?
I use PNGs to encode elevation data in my 3D mapping library (https://github.com/felixpalmer/procedural-gl-js/) and this does a pretty good job of compressing the data, for example in the ocean the PNG files are also very small as the image is mostly black. Different use case I now as your data is much more sparse, but I wonder how close the PNG compression would be compared to your approach.

React Component for 3D Maps
Yeah, the React parts of this are very minimal. I'm not really sure what using it gets you, since it just manages a single div.
The _actual_ library that does all the work is here: https://github.com/felixpalmer/procedural-gl-js

Ask HN: What Are You Working On?
- Tiny filesize means library is parsed fast. Package size is less than THREE.js thanks to code stripping
