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.

Should I use newer ghc?
extra-deps: - git: https://github.com/AccelerateHS/accelerate.git commit: 5971c5d8e4dbba28d2017e7ce422cf46a20197cb
Someone has opened a PR for accelerate here https://github.com/AccelerateHS/accelerate/pull/525 (sadly seems not actively maintained at the moment, but that can always change if people care enough). I agree for an executable you should freeze your dependencies and compiler version, and using 8.10 is fine. Although there are tons of improvements in 9.2+

Haskell deep learning tutorials [Blog]
Backprop is a neat library. However, I guess its use case is if you actually don't want to go for anything standard like Torch or TF (perhaps for research?) For instance, if I were to use something like Accelerate for GPU acceleration, or some other computation-oriented library, then I would mix it with Backprop. Previously, I have benefited from Backprop in a ConvNet tutorial and I liked it.

Who is researching array languages these days?
I know Accelerate is being developed at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. You can look at publications by Trevor McDonell to get a taste of what they are doing.

Introduction to Doctests in Haskell
Looking for a few projects that make use of it, I found accelerate, hawk, polysemy and pretty-simple, so I'll be interested to poke around in their code and see how they have things set up.

Monthly Hask Anything (March 2022)
There's accelerate for GPU computing and hmatrix for bindings to BLAS and LAPACK.

Implementing a LLVM Micro C compiler in Haskell
This is amazing. I tried following Stephen Diehl's JIT compiler in LLVM tutorial[0] a few years ago but it was already outdated (the llvm-hs library changed quite a bit), and subsequent web searches didn't turn up much.
For those interested in tutorials like this, I'd also recommend a very literate Haskell compiler for the PCF language to C[1], which is essentially lambda calculus with some primitives.
