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.

Any alternate Rust compilers?
Also on the list of compilers making progress is https://github.com/LightningCreations/lccc. It is also pure rust from top to bottom, with a completely custom intermediate architecture, call xlang.

Why I support GCC-rs
I'm not saying it doesn't have a legitimate reason for being low priority, I'm just saying that, with the capability of implementing a fix myself, I think it's reasonable to at least attempt to do so (and, I did, in fact, https://github.com/LightningCreations/lccc/blob/main/rust/libcore/src/any.rs, though this is pending on the relevent https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/84391).

The New Boost Website Goes Beta
We do not control boost.org, and putting this on a subdomain imputes an authority for decision-making we don't have. Building it on some temporary domains, then presenting it as a choice is the only approach compatible with Boost values.

Is it just me or is the quality of the Boost API docs just.. kind of terrible? Like compare it to cppreference (very good) or Qt docs (also great).
Not at all. There is no "they", the Boost Libraries is just a collection of individual libraries that each have their own author or maintainer, usually unpaid (although the C++ Alliance has changed that somewhat). The only funding that "Boost" gets is from running the C++Now conference, and some of that pays for the hosting of boost.org.

Boost down?
Though the links within it seem to be to boost.org and therefore fail to be resolved. Well I can manually replace them with https://www.boostcpp.org/ like:
- New Boost.Unordered containers have BIG improvements!

Ask HN: What Happened to Boost.org?
Oh wow, it behaves incorrectly...when I visit http://boost.org/ or https://... it shows spam on my side, whereas when I visit https://www.boost.org/ it works as expected.

Why I support GCC-rs
If you wondered why Boost headers look like hell that's because once your library ends up being popular, you're kinda stuck supporting quirky compilers -- either yourself, or accepting patches for it.
