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.

Nim version 2.0.0 release candidate
Personally this preciseness is just a distraction, but it sounds like you have learned from the constraints and can now take the training wheels off again.
Very curious about those cases, yet to find one myself that was not because of a bad design decision. Though I am also very big on the idea of `ambiguous grammar, rigorous implementation`, for natural language too. (Toki Pona is a somewhat extreme example but the contextual grammar, and holistic minimalism is fascinating)
Not to make it longer than needs to be; But take the example code in this readme: https://github.com/guzba/mummy
Being able to quickly script this without thinking about cases or style on the first pass is a really lovely way of reducing friction imho.

Pratt Parsers: Expression Parsing Made Easy
Ha, nice to see this on HN: this article was pretty helpful to me to understand the concept a few years back when extending my PEG parsing library [1] with a Pratt parser; this mitigates the problem of PEG parsers not allowing left recursion and allows for a much more concise notation of grammars with operator precedence. Thank you Bob:
