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.

Is there a tool that can show you an EIP trace of a game?
If you want to also do dynamic analysis (debugging) you can use https://x64dbg.com.

Don't make fun plz this took 5mins
It's also useful to know for reverse engineering. Similar to how you can hit F12 in your browser and start poking around a sites JavaScript, you can attach a debugger like x64dbg to a native running process and make changes to the program while it's running

What's some github repo to take a look at to get a grasp of real-world C++?
Perhaps you’re interested in my brain child: https://github.com/x64dbg/x64dbg it’s a mess code-wise, but it’s definitely used in the real world 🤷‍♂️

CPP projects I can get involved in?
You are welcome to contribute to x64dbg, a user mode debugger for Windows. The codebase isn’t the most modern, but there is a branch with a CMake port and modernization is very welcome! Feel free to hit me up if you’re interested and need some pointers :)

RE Unreal .exe file?
[1] https://youtu.be/pzM4o6qxssk [2] https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/debugger-download-tools [3] https://x64dbg.com [4] Depending on what language the .exe was compiled in a good - free - choice of decompiler framework may be Ghidra https://ghidra-sre.org or https://github.com/dnSpy/dnSpy , native executable vs .Net (managed runtime) executable. Also look into Frida https://frida.re/docs/examples/windows/

Ask HN: What Underrated Open Source Project Deserves More Recognition?
ImHex
“A Hex Editor for Reverse Engineers, Programmers and people who value their retinas when working at 3 AM.”
I actually used it not too long ago to inspect why a mp4 file wasn’t valid. The pattern language that they have is quite nice and having sections of the hex highlighted and being able to see what structures they represent and what data was on those structures was very useful!

Spectrum Analyser, a Sinclair ZX Spectrum reverse engineering tool
Just one note: Please use UI scaling; it's near impossible to read on a 150% 4k screen (much less on 100%). Unfortunately, young eyes don't last forever.
The UI looks very much like ImHex (https://imhex.werwolv.net/) is this a coincidence, or is it the standard ImGui look and feel?
I wish ImHex had a decompiler for Z80 as well, but this is much better.

Immediate Mode GUI Programming
I didn't use RemedyBG or Tracy, but I did try ImHex (https://github.com/WerWolv/ImHex) and it loaded 12% of the CPU because everything is being repainted 60 times per second. Heck, it even has an option to limit the FPS, which solves the CPU load a bit, but at the same time results in sluggish input because the event handling is tied to the drawing frequency.
So yes, the experience was not good, and I don't see what these tools would lose by using a proper GUI. I don't want every utility to drain my laptop battery like a decent video game.
ImGui is great if you already have a loop where everything is unconditionally redrawn every frame, but otherwise it's a really odd choice for an end-user application.

The Hiew Hex Editor
I now use ImHex after looking for years for a good one. It has a pattern language to provide highlighting.
