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.

Error when using cxx to link a Rust-written library in a C++ project
In rust, both release and debug builds use a release version of the runtime. The bugs the debug version is meant to catch are much more difficult to hit in rust (often but not always requiring unsafe). There isn't currently a feature to use the debug runtime in rust-- you can only change C to match for those debug builds.

time: MSRV policy is changing beginning 2023-07-01 to N-2 rustc versions
The point is how the MSRV of a popular crate affects this dynamic for other crates. For an even more extreme example than time, see here for libc, with many heavyweights offering opinions: https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/72

What are binary crate MSRV policy best practices?
In case you haven't seen it yet, there is a very long discussion surrounding MSRV policy of the libc crate on rust-langs github repo. It's about a library, not a binary, but I think there's a lot of information in the thread, some of which will also apply to binaries.

Azure CTO: βIt's time to halt starting any new projects in C/C++ β
Compare Stepanov's brilliant design of the STL to Rust's current reworking of their 'binary search api'. https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/81
Maybe 'memory safety' isn't the most important thing in this world. To me, writing software that does useful things in the simplest and most correct way is what matters. I get the feeling it's harder to understand my program's correctness with Rust (I mean algorithmic correctness). The C++ standard library has time and space complexity for every algorithm. I'm not seeing that's the case with Rust (correct me if I'm wrong).

Is anyone actually stuck on an old version of Rust
There's also the pretty fundamental libc crate that wants to choose an MSRV policy and you can see the full discussion here: https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/72
- For rust, I have never see a real world project contains million lines of code, nor more than 1000 components here.

Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44650
This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/cve-2024-24576.html
Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

I hate Rust (programming language)
> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.
Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Show HN: Fancy-ANSI β Small JavaScript library for converting ANSI to HTML
Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.
To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/
