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.

Run0 – systemd based alternative to sudo announced
There is also a write of sudo in Rust, which works more akin to the traditional sudo but memory-safe and with fewer bugs: https://www.memorysafety.org/blog/sudo-first-stable-release/
Source code: https://github.com/memorysafety/sudo-rs
And if you are running Debian 13 (trixie) or later, or Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble Numbat) or later, you can already install it using `apt install sudo-rs`.

The First Stable Release of a Rust-Rewrite Sudo Implementation

How to spawn a process as root (like sudo). without sudo?
It uses the setuid flag, just like sudo. The readme says
- Way to improve security of sudo: make a daemon instead of setuid bina
- Two core Unix-like utilities, sudo and su, are getting rewrites in Rust

Sudo and Su Being Rewritten in Rust for Memory Safety

sidenote: why there is no python like syntax language TLA+ and ability to generate a partial implementation you could hook into (complete) from that model.

Rust to .NET compiler – Progress update
> There are online Rust compilers and interpreters already if you just want to rapid prototype and develop ideas in Rust
You are responding to one of the key developers of Rust early on[1], who's been working with the language for 14 years at that point.
[1] https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/graphs/contributors?from=2... and he's still #16 in commits overall today, despite almost no activity on the rust compiler since 2014.

Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44650
This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/cve-2024-24576.html
Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

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/
