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.

I hate Rust (programming language)
> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.
Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Show HN: Fancy-ANSI – Small JavaScript library for converting ANSI to HTML
Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.
To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/

What Are Const Generics and How Are They Used in Rust?
The above Assert<{N % 2 == 1}> requires #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] and the nightly toolchain. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76560 for more info.

Learning Rust: Structuring Data with Structs
Another week, another dive into Rust. This time, we're delving into structs. Structs bear resemblance to interfaces in TypeScript, enabling the grouping of intricate data sets within an object, much like TypeScript/JavaScript. Rust also accommodates functions within these structs, offering a semblance of classes, albeit with distinctions. Let's delve into this topic.

Replacing musl's malloc with mimalloc: any ideas?
mimalloc: mimalloc is an open source implementation of malloc, currently the best performing allocator.

Reptar
Some compiler writers thought that was the case, if [0] is related to OP. I don't have a "modern" (after 6th gen) Intel CPU to test it on, but note that most programs are compiled for a relatively generic CPU.

Is the JVM a upside or downside to Scala?
Yes, it's very efficient and that's not where the main problem lies. However, small allocations with modern C heap allocators like mimalloc or snmalloc has gotten extremely efficient as well. Would be interesting to see a benchmark comparison with Java's G1 and ZGC.

Z Garbage Collector: The Next Generation
Memory management for C is not itself a solved problem, not only is there a lot of performance to squeeze out of malloc itself (the benchmarks on https://github.com/microsoft/mimalloc exemplifies the variance between the implementations), but it's up to the programmer to implement memory management in the large in an efficient way, which is not an easy task. One sure mark of a slow C program is one with a ton of mallocs and frees strewn all over.

Differences between Lean4 and Koka reference counting
I was wondering if Koka's perceus referencing counting style is any different from the reference counting that Lean4 implements? I understand that both rely upon the mimalloc (https://github.com/microsoft/mimalloc) library in the backend.

pmr implementation in c++14
If you are fine with heap allocations then there are only few dozens operator new/delete to override to regain control over normal C++ code memory use. Allocators and STL all need to call those. At least that's what gaming does on all platforms. If you need examples you can check Mimalloc on github ( https://github.com/microsoft/mimalloc/blob/master/include/mimalloc-new-delete.h ).
