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.

What’s new in Swift 5.4?
A task-based structured concurrency system with grouping, prioritization, and a reliable cancellation mechanism. (Forum thread)
-
Async/Await proposal accepted
Regardless, as cryo said, the tools for performing those fetches concurrently are a part of the structured concurrency proposal, which will likely be the next proposal up for review.

Evolving the Go Standard Library with math/rand/v2
This algorithm produces biased result with probability 1/2^(32-bitwidth(N)). Using 64 or 128 random bits can make the bias practically undetectable. Comprehensive overview of the approach can be found here: https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/39143

Embedded Swift on the Raspberry Pi Pico
Because of C/C++ interop, and integration with CMake, you can just add Swift to a Zephyr project and it pretty much Just Works. [The docs](https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/main/docs/EmbeddedSwift/...) should mostly apply to the Zephyr SDK as well.

A Deep Dive Into Observation: A New Way to Boost SwiftUI Performance
Fortunately, the Observation framework is part of the Swift 5.9 standard library. We can learn more information by examining its source code.

Swift was always going to be part of the OS
They do! See https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/main/docs/LibraryEvoluti...
You can also see an example of what a different high level language integration with Swift ABI looks like here: https://github.com/dotnet/designs/blob/main/proposed/swift-i...

Differentiable Swift
So is differentiable Swift a package for Swift or is it part of the Swift standard library? The video says go to swift.org but I can't find any info about differentiable Swift on that site.

Beyond Backpropagation - Higher Order, Forward and Reverse-mode Automatic Differentiation for Tensorken
Swift's Differentiable Programming Manifesto. Swift has a powerful differentiable programming component, integrated with the compiler.

This isn’t the way to speed up Rust compile times
Codable (along with other derived conformances like Equatable, Hashable, and RawRepresentable) is indeed built in to the compiler[0], but unlike Serde, it operates during type-checking on a fully-constructed AST (with access to type information), manipulating the AST to insert code. Because it operates at a later stage of compilation and at a much higher level (with access to type information), the work necessary is significantly less.
With ongoing work for Swift macros, it may eventually be possible to rip this code out of the compiler and rewrite it as a macro, though it would need to be a semantic macro[1] rather a syntactic one, which isn't currently possible in Swift[2].

How does Swift implement primitive types in its standard library?
`Int` is a regular struct with a single stored property of type `Builtin.Word` . But the latter is a magical compiler built-in. Source for integer types is generated from this template - https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/9da65ca0a15fdf341649c994b0a77ec3b71f2687/stdlib/public/core/IntegerTypes.swift.gyb
