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.

How to convert an enum to string in C++
There are also other approaches. Macro variants making use of `__VA_ARGS__` would be probably the best trade-off. If you want a slightly more ergonomic syntax, something like Metalang99 [1] will help (and the author even wrote a post about this exact subject [2]). Codegen is another option which may work better than other options depending on the situation and exact implementation strategy. And there is always the Reflection TS [3], which may or may not be incorporated to C++26...

Few lesser known tricks, quirks and features of C
I went down the rabbit hole with C99 metaprogramming after reading through the list. For reference: https://metalang99.readthedocs.io/en/latest/, https://github.com/Hirrolot/metalang99

Boost:Unordered_flat_map
Honestly I have to disagree. There is nothing particularly special about what Super Template Tetris(STT) is doing.
At its core, template metaprogramming is just functional programming at compile time. STT is just a template and a runtime function which do the following:
1, take an input via compile time flag (the `-D DIRECTION`)
2. take a type input from an included header file containing the current state (`#include "current_game.h"`)
3. via functional programming, compute the results of a single step of the game.
4. specialise a single function using the results of step 3. this function prints the computed result to the screen and the computed game state to a file (`./current_game.h`).
5. gcc/clang exits. compilation is complete.
6. call the compiled binary.
7. the binary runs the specialised function and prints the outputs.
Sure it's fucky and you shouldn't do that in production but what sane individual is writing a piece of code that at runtime (after compiling) seeks out one of its own source files and modifies that file?
To prevent this from being possible you'd have to remove runtime file IO from the language. The other potential solutions wouldn't work:
1. Remove templates entirely: Still would be possible using https://github.com/Hirrolot/metalang99 which solely uses the preprocessor. Given that the pre-processor is literally just term substitution(a glorified copy/paste engine), if you removed that as well, you'd have to accept no form of metaprogramming at all.
2. Remove the ability to #include other files: Could still be done by doing everything inline. `#include` is just copy-paste anyways so it's more an abstraction than anything else to the compiler and preprocessor, it's basically the same as if all the code was pasted into the same file.
That leaves you with removing file IO. Without IO a programming language is basically useless, particularly as a systems programming language.

Conditional preprocessor macro, anyone?
I did get a few great responses there as well, though. One was a link to this impressive piece of work: https://github.com/Hirrolot/metalang99/blob/master/examples/lambda_calculus.c

Show HN: I made a game to improve my typing speed
It's gotta be fun, and Typing for the Dead is a good one.

More recently though, there's https://monkeytype.com/ and https://play.typeracer.com/ which are fun little breaks during the day.

Been at this for 6 months, need advice
Try a small change and sometimes a drastic one (like dropping a column or row) and mash keybr.com and monkeytype.com until it feels natural, or not then revert. And if I revert I often try again a few weeks later...

Why my neovim lags so much?
It works normal in small projects but when I open for example monkeytype and edit a file it lags so much that sometime it crashes.

Keyboard Shortcut Database Website
I had a really useful website bookmarked in the past, which let you enter a keyboard shortcut and see what programs used that same shortcut. It was really helpful if I needed to create a keyboard shortcut that I knew wouldn't conflict with Windows or any other programs I used. I feel like the site's color scheme was dark gray and yellow/orange, similar to monkeytype.com, but I could be misremembering.

Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
If you are a 2 finger typist and also think people are "obsessing over WPM" because they're wanting to utilize their own tools to the fullest advantage, that sounds like some mental block kind of thing.
If you can type at least 80 consistently then thats probably would I imagine the dividing line is between "flow/concentration not breaking" and "breaks constantly"
