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.

Passing nothing is surprisingly difficult
Useful context on the Rust side is this issue [1]. It sounds like some of the author's concerns are addressed already.

Blog Post: Non-Send Futures When?
Is this captured by one of the known soundness conflicts? If not then should consider adding it to the list.
- Are crates like vcell and volatile cell still unsound?

Question: Are there things for Unsafe Rust learn from Zig?
There are some competing proposals for different memory models. Stacked borrows is the current proposal, but there are more work in the approproate WG.

Let's thank who have helped us in the Rust Community together!
Thank you /u/RalfJung for bringing formal methods to Rust, both through models like Stacked Borrows, by developing miri, and by working on unsafe-code-guidelines which aims to specify exactly what is and isn't allowed in unsafe code (surprisingly, it's an open question as 2023!)
- Questions about ownership rule

Noob Here: Why doesn't this work?
You could imagine some way to make this safe for example automatically convert &'short &'long mut T to &'short &'short T, but it's non-trivial to prove they are safe at all, not to mention ensuring this is correctly implemented in the compiler. If you're interested there's also a discussion on whether the opposite (& & T to & &mut T) is sound here.

When Zig is safer and faster than (unsafe) Rust
Agreed! MIRI is so good, it still feels like magic to me. It also comforts me that the Rust team takes improving unsafe semantics seriously, with the past Unsafe Code Guidelines WG and today's operational semantics team (t-opsem).

Safety and Soundness in Rust
I think there are some aspects of this rule that are still undecided. See for example:
- https://github.com/rust-lang/unsafe-code-guidelines/issues/8...
- https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/2732

I wanna be a crab.
C is much better specified than unsafe Rust. Some things are just not worked out yet in Rust. This may sometimes even bite very experienced devs, such as this issue with Box's aliasing semantics, which tripped up the author of left-right.

Learning Rust: A clean start
My first port of call was to google learn rust which lead me to "the book". The book is a first steps guide written by the rust community for newbies (or Rustlings as they're called) to gain a 'solid grasp of the language'.

Prodzilla: From Zero to Prod with Rust and Shuttle
Before Prodzilla, I’d read 'The Book' a couple of times, and had made my way through Rustlings, but hadn’t yet built a serious project in Rust.

Help me stop hating rust
To answer your last question;
Start with the Rust book.
https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/
Then do Rustlings until the syntax becomes muscle memory.
Then join the Discord and start doing little projects.
You won’t get up to the proficiency of other languages as quickly in Rust. It takes longer. For me it’s taking a lot longer, but I enjoy it.

Top 10 Rusty Repositories for you to start your Open Source Journey
Before diving into these repositories, familiarize yourself with Rust and its development ecosystem. The official Rust book is an excellent resource for developers at all levels. Each repository has documentation on how to contribute, covering code style, issue tracking, and pull requests.

Command Line Rust is a great book
This is my third Rust book after the official book and Rust in Action. The other two books are great, but they were too theoretical for me. I'm a slow learner and had much trouble grokking Rust's features and idiosyncrasies. When I was done with these books, I was lost and unsure of what I could do.

Nim
It's the same reason everything digital and downloadable isn't free: there's a cost to create it and there's a value to it.
For a language developer to charge for a book about that language, I think that's a completely valid way to make some money off of their work.
Even the Rust book, "The Rust Programming Language" is available freely online [0], but also as a print and ebook for sale via NoStarchPress [1].

Ask HN: How do you learn Rust in 2023?
I am looking at The Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/), but hoped there was an amazing person on youtube.
Yeah, I'll build something, finally trying webassembly.
