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.

Any active project aiming to replicate python's batteries-included in rust?
There's none that I know of, aside from stdx which was last updated 4 years ago.

Is there any part of the Standard Library that really impresses you?
brson had a repository called https://github.com/brson/stdx and it's a pity it isn't maintained anymore: some of them are in disuse now (for example, instead of lazy_static prefer stdlib's Lazy, or better yet, you don't need them if you just want to initialize a mutex or something; also error-chain) and the list could use some maintenance

Nearly 100,000 NPM Users' Credentials Stolen in GitHub OAuth Breach
You suggested creating a super-library of vetted crates. It has been tried before, but it didn’t get any adoption. stdx - The missing batteries of Rust was never used much. Looking at it now, it recommends crates that have been superseded by others.

As an example of the above, if you're not aware of it already, you might find brson/stdx interesting.

Hey, i begin my journey into Rust !
Big libraries like Boost or the Python standard library tend to develop as a workaround for weak package management so, with Cargo, efforts to produce Boost-like compilations (Eg. stdx) withered on the vine for lack of sufficient interest.

First Impressions of Rust
It's been suggested and people even tried doing that of their own volition with projects like stdx, but they withered away for lack of interest.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (50/2021)!
I second u/globulemix' attitude, searching on crates.io and then looking at Downloads and also git activity (might be misleading, as some projects are simply very stable). For a lot of tasks, you might wish to take a look at stdx

Batteries included stdlib?
Seems abandoned, but there was https://github.com/brson/stdx

Rust Vs. Go Random Observations
I've been here since before Rust 1.0 and I've seen various projects like stdx start, but fail to achieve critical mass... probably because that kind of approach tends to invite the worst kind of bikeshedding.

RFC: Rust Has Provenance
Provenance is a dynamic property of pointer values. The actual underlying rules that a program must follow, even when using raw pointers and `unsafe`, are written in terms of provenance. Miri (https://github.com/rust-lang/miri) represents provenance as an actual value stored alongside each pointer's address, so it can check for violations of these rules.
Lifetimes are a static approximation of provenance. They are erased after being validated by the borrow checker, and do not exist in Miri or have any impact on what transformations the optimizer may perform. In other words, the provenance rules allow a superset of what the borrow checker allows.

There has been discussion of doing this with MIRI, which would be easier than all of rustc.

Piecemeal dropping of struct members causes UB? (Miri)

I've incidentally created one of the fastest bounded MPSC queue
Actually, I've done more advanced tests with MIRI (see https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2920 for example) which allowed me to fix some issues. I've also made the code compatible with loom, but I didn't found the time yet to write and execute loom tests. That's on the TODO-list, and I need to track it with an issue too.

Interested in "secure programming languages", both theory and practice but mostly practice, where do I start?
He is one of the big brains behind Miri, which is a interpreter that runs on the MIR (compiler representation between human code and asm/machine code) and detects undefined behavior. Super useful tool for language safety, pretty interesting on its own.
-
Formal verification for unsafe code?
I would also run your tests in Miri (https://github.com/rust-lang/miri) to try to cover more bases.
-
Ouroboros is also unsound
You can run miri and it will tell you if the given run triggered any undefined behavior. It will not analyze it for every possible use of the code, but checking for the presence of this specific issue using it should be fairly simple.

From Stacks to Trees: A new aliasing model for Rust
If you do encounter a piece of code on which TB performs much worse than SB, do submit it as an issue! There was one recently and we massively improved TB performance on this case by improving garbage collection.
