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.

C++ is everywhere, but noone really talks about it. What are people's thoughts?
Are you saying that this book is a hallucination? And this? And all of this?

[Serious] Is it possible to get into software engineering role after 10 years? Your advice will be greatly appreciated.
4) C++: it’s often overly complicated for many projects. Use with caution, although it’s definitely useful in very large projects. But there’s a reason Rust is increasingly popular for embedded — here’s an engineer’s view.
- Embedded Startup kits for a C programmer?
-
Could I get some ideas for practice projects? I’m coming from C for embedded applications and I liked many pets of rust especially the efficiency and speed that is similar to C. I want to learn it and I am reading but nothing teaches like doing.
If you come from the embedded C community then maybe something like Phil Oppermann's writing an OS in Rust series. There's also the embedded Rust book and the embedded Rust working group github that has a lot of resources.
- IOT Rust as final project

I want to try migrating my motorized camera slider
There's a page on the Rust website on embedded systems. Given that you are already familiar with embedded programming, you can probably start with the embedded rust book.

Chromebooks will get 10 years of automatic updates
Why BIOS (did you mean UEFI?) when it runs the best boot loader, which is Coreboot¹. Many users would love to re-flash their bios/uefi for it, if it’s supported.

You can also use Mr. Chromebox Script to install Coreboot on your chromebook to get a UEFI BIOS on your Chromebook and then you can go an install either a linux distro or even Windows if you want. It's a pretty straightforward process and also reversable if you want to go back to just using ChromeOS.

AMD to move to open source firmware in 2026
There may be other protections to restrict SPI flash access for security reasons (so you might not be able to flash your custom firmware in the OS), but worst case you can use a HW flasher (or maybe USB flashback). Still, this doesn't address the elephant in the room - platform initialization code might be open-sourced, but that isn't everything. You'll still need to figure out the board-specific stuff (the Super I/O chip, chipset GPIOs, other peripherals, etc.). Using coreboot as an example, Intel provides the Firmware Support Package blob to handle platform initialization. I think AGESA is somewhat similar to this, though Intel publicly releases the binaries for use in coreboot/etc. Thanks to the FSP, coreboot has support for recent Intel chipsets. However, there is only support for two recent consumer boards: the MSI PRO Z690-A WiFi DDR4 and DDR5.
