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.

Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
We maintain a couple of popular ksuid libraries[1][2] and use it, so we definitely like ksuid. Though one big issue with ksuid is that being 160bit means that it doesn't fit into native uuid types in databases (e.g. postgres), which means that they come with a performance penalty.

Show HN: A Pure Rust Ksuid Implementation
I wasn't going to post it here because it feels a bit small for a show HN, but then I figured: why not. :)
It's a pure Rust implementation of Segement's KSUID, and I created this library while working on Svix[0].
I haven't written any Rust for a while, so even though I have written quite a bit of Rust code in the past (see Etebase[1]), I'm a bit rusty (no pun intended).
Anyhow, I just wanted to share, and I'm hoping to get some feedback if you have any. :)
Code and examples: https://github.com/svix/rust-ksuid/
P.S, the package is tested for compatibility against the reference Go implementation.

Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
There's more! I keep a list of interesting "bases" A select few:
- base 58 - Satoshi's/Bitcoin's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding#Base58
- "base62" - Keybase's saltpack https://github.com/keybase/saltpack
- The famous "Adobe 85" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascii85
- basE91 - https://base91.sourceforge.net
At work we defined several new "bases" for QR code. IMHO, it is an under applied area of computer science.
What are some alternatives?
