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.

Python uuid-utils in Rust
Digging deeper now I found these links, so basically it uses `ThreadRng` from the `rand` crate. It mentions that the `ThreadRng` also seeds data from `OsRng` so I guess it's not much different, but I'm no expert in this area so I will post the links so if you find anything useful, please share:https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/issues/529https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/pull/545https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/rngs/struct.ThreadRng.html

New UUID Formats from IETF
Those aren’t bytes — they’re integers of various sizes. (Hint: do not use integer types in C code for portable data structures. ntohl, etc are a mess. Just use arrays of bytes.)
I don’t know the whole history, but MS somehow took this structure at face value and caused problems like this:
https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/issues/277
So, if you want to do anything (e.g. sorting) that depends on the representation of a UUID (or even depends on converting between string and binary representations), be aware that UUIDs coming from Windows may be little-endian. In my book, this is a Windows bug, but opinions may differ here.

New UUID Formats from IETF
Nice to see another implementation which takes a bit different approach. Just for your information, there's now Draft 03 which changes the format a little bit. I kinda liked the arbitrary precision of Draft 02, but the newer one just requires millisecond precision and then basically leaves it up to the implementation how to handle the generation of multiple UUIDs within the same millisecond.
