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.

Announcing `compact_str` version 0.7! A small string optimization for Rust
I didn't use any inline asm, instead I wrote the simplest if statement possible, which I confirmed on x86_64, x86, and aarch64 compiles down to use the platform's supported conditional move instructions. If this changes in the future and there's a need to write inline asm, you can do so in a portable way, e.g. the cmov crate.

Shoot me straight.
There's also cpufeatures which might suit your use case better (depending on exactly how you want to do it).

Crate for AES256 - which one to choose? Questions about block cipher modes and AEAD too.
I have seen that RustCrypto also offers a create for securely zeroing memory with: zeroize
-
`kindly`: a simplistic (and hopefully educational) implementation of a set-user-ID-root program (think mini `sudo`) for Linux
The zeroing routine itself looks fine to me. You might want to compare your code with the (already mentioned) zeroize crate, which does something similar (or maybe identical?).

Maybe found a Y2k bug in the rust-crypto DER-encoding util?
To save a few clicks, this was found to be, indeed, a Y2K issue, and der v0.4.1 has just been released to fix it. Citing the comment added to the issue after the fact:
-
Incredibly fast UTF-8 validation
I opened a tracking issue for that.

Now that the long-awaited const generics (MVP) have come to stable in 1.51, what crates are going to gain the most from it?

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/
