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.

SDL&C Or Wgpu&Rust, for Learning Graphics Programming ?
I don't think that SDL and WGPU are really comparable. You'd be better off comparing SDL to something like Notan or even the SDL bindings for Rust. That said, SDL will have vastly more learning resources than Wgpu or Notan or any Rust alternative. If you know and like rust you can probably use the resources with the Rust SDL bindings.
-
Game Lib similar to LWJGL Pygame SDL
Those are 3 very different libraries. Are you looking for something in the middle, or do you want all of the features you described? For what it's worth, there's SLD2 bindings for Rust https://github.com/Rust-SDL2/rust-sdl2
-
How would I connect renderer coded in C and logic coded in rust?
There's already a Rust binding for SDL2. See https://crates.io/crates/sdl2
-
SDL2 vs Winit/Pixels/CPAL/etc. Is going "native" really worth it?
nope. https://github.com/Rust-SDL2/rust-sdl2/issues/884 emscripten target won't work yet either.
-
I would like a simple, but abstracted, drawing library
it seems like what you are looking for is sdl2 bindings

cannot borrow `renderer` as mutable more than once at a time
Dude. It's literally at most 50 lines of code, the entire project. What kind of documentation do you expect me to write? The library I'm using is this one. I don't know why you'd need to know anything about it since it's purely something that can appear literally anywhere, it's part of the language.

C++ coders, why do you stick with the language?
*and* SDL2-sys *and* Rust-SDL2

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (21/2022)!
The SDL2 crate had something like this, and it's an option I'm considering. However, if possible, I'd prefer a different, simpler GUI library, so if there's an input-specialized crate out there that does this, I'd love it.

RFC: Add large language models to Rust
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3603
- Rust to add large language models to the standard library
-
Why does Rust choose not to provide `for` comprehensions?
Man, SO and family has really gone downhill. That top answer is absolutely terrible. In fact, if you care, you can literally look at the RFC discussion here to see the actual debate: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/582
Basically, `for x in y` is kind of redundant, already sorta-kinda supported by itertools, and there's also a ton of macros that sorta-kinda do it already. It would just be language bloat at this point.
Literally has nothing to do with memory management.

Uv: Python Packaging in Rust
Congrats!
> Similarly, uv does not yet generate a platform-agnostic lockfile. This matches pip-tools, but differs from Poetry and PDM, making uv a better fit for projects built around the pip and pip-tools workflows.
Do you expect to make the higher level workflow independent of requirements.txt / support a platform-agnostic lockfile? Being attached to Rye makes me think "no".
Without being platform agnostic, to me this is dead-on-arrival and unable to meet the "Cargo for Python" aim.
> uv supports alternate resolution strategies. By default, uv follows the standard Python dependency resolution strategy of preferring the latest compatible version of each package. But by passing --resolution=lowest, library authors can test their packages against the lowest-compatible version of their dependencies. (This is similar to Go's Minimal version selection.)
> uv allows for resolutions against arbitrary target Python versions. While pip and pip-tools always resolve against the currently-installed Python version (generating, e.g., a Python 3.12-compatible resolution when running under Python 3.12), uv accepts a --python-version parameter, enabling you to generate, e.g., Python 3.7-compatible resolutions even when running under newer versions.
This is great to see though!
I can understand it being a flag on these lower level, directly invoked dependency resolution operations.
While you aren't onto the higher level operations yet, I think it'd be useful to see if there is any cross-ecosystem learning we can do for my MSRV RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3537
How are you handling pre-releases in you resolution? Unsure how much of that is specified in PEPs. Its something that Cargo is weak in today but we're slowly improving.

The bane of my existence: Supporting both async and sync code in Rust
In the early days of Rust there was a debate about whether to support "green threads" and in doing that require runtime support. It was actually implemented and included for a time but it creates problems when trying to do library or embedded code. At the time Go for example chose to go that route, and it was both nice (goroutines are nice to write and well supported) and expensive (effectively requires GC etc). I don't remember the details but there is a Rust RFC from when they removed green threads:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/0806be4f282144cfcd55b...

Why stdout is faster than stderr?
I did some more digging. By RFC 899, I believe Alex Crichton meant PR 899 in this repo:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/899
Still, no real discussion of why unbuffered stderr.

Ask HN: What's the fastest programming language with a large standard library?
Rust has had a stable SIMD vector API[1] for a long time. But, it's architecture specific. The portable API[2] isn't stable yet, but you probably can't use the portable API for some of the more exotic uses of SIMD anyway. Indeed, that's true in .NET's case too[3].
Rust does all this SIMD too. It just isn't in the standard library. But the regex crate does it. Indeed, this is where .NET got its SIMD approach for multiple substring search from in the first place[4]. ;-)
You're right that Rust's standard library is conservatively vectorized though[5]. The main thing blocking this isn't the lack of SIMD availability. It's more about how the standard library is internally structured, and the fact that things like substring search are not actually defined in `std` directly, but rather, in `core`. There are plans to fix this[6].
