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.

Async / Await in Scheme
I recently pushed a library to IronScheme to implement anyc / await in a way that I felt was reasonable. Before that, IronScheme had pretty limited support for concurrency, so my goal was to create a library that provided concurrency facilities in a way that would interop nicely with .NET libraries.

- Ask HN: Does an equivalent of Clojure exist for .NET?

Accelerate for Microsoft 365 is a new add-in that integrates the Visual Scheme for Applications programming language. It will also offer Clojure as an alternative.
Apparently this costs $99/yr for a company called Apex Data Solutions to wire the freely available IronScheme into Office 365 via its extension model. See their marketing and shop pages.

PSA: If you update a YML file used in CI to install or use Python 3.10, make sure to use “3.10” as a string. Otherwise is will most likely install Python 3.1.
I love this example: https://github.com/IronScheme/IronScheme/commit/2f847793946935bd9143cdfb064f9006f763df68

Is rust becoming the defacto standard for Windows programming?
you mean IronRust, to go with IronRuby and IronPython, IronScheme, and IronJS

Transparens: a pandoc-like program for translating Scheme code between implementations
That is not happenning anytime soon, see https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/issues/574; And even without getting a clear green go from big schemers. Getting together a common C FFI Domain Specific Language, and implementing that for the Scheme that are nowadays popular or in-use will advance the subject. See https://github.com/ktakashi/r6rs-pffi. I will not hold my breath.
