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.

You might not need a CRDT
This is a cool approach. It reminds me of statebox by mochimedia: https://github.com/mochi/statebox_riak.
If I'm understanding correctly, it requires the mutations to be deterministic in order for the nodes to converge.
Replicache (replicache.dev - my thing) takes a similar approach except it does not requires the mutations to be deterministic, which is very useful because it enables, e.g., authenticated operations on the server.
Both the idea here and Replicache's approach are closely related to game networking. If you are interested in these ideas, a really excellent set of content is: https://www.gabrielgambetta.com/client-server-game-architect....

You might not need a CRDT (Conflict-free Replicated Data Type)
The relevance here is that this post mentions their new Rust library Aper (https://aper.dev/). In addition, CRDTs are a favorite topic of Raph Levien, AKA the Rust GUI guy, and featured in the Xi editor, his first major Rust project (retrospective here: https://raphlinus.github.io/xi/2020/06/27/xi-retrospective.html).

You might not need a CRDT
It's also super refreshing to see the work on Aper [1] [2] (a Rust library implementing state machine synchronization across a trusted network). Looking forward next series of articles here!

CRDTs make multiplayer text editing part of Zed's DNA
Our Aper (https://aper.dev) implements a number of similar concepts (state machine replication with optimistic local transitions + rollback). I 100% agree that it’s an easier model to reason about.
Your approach with cursors is clever, that part I haven’t seen elsewhere.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2022)
Drifting in Space | Full-time | NYC | https://driftingin.space
We make Jamsocket (https://jamsocket.com/), which allows application developers to spin up and connect to server-side compute. This allows browser-based applications to do computationally-intensive things that are otherwise impossible in the browser.
We went through YC and just raised a seed round and are looking to build up our team. We are based in NYC but are open to remote for experience candidates.
Our tech stack includes Rust, NATS, Docker, Postgres, TypeScript.
We have lots of fun technical problems that get into the nitty-gritty of networking and operating systems, plus fun open-source stuff like Aper (https://aper.dev/). We are excited to build a diverse team and encourage non-traditional candidates to apply.
