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 WIKI do you recommend
MoinMoin [wikipedia link] uses flat files, so does WikidPad as a personal wiki.
- Is there an app to keep track of all the details when writing a story?
-
Good open source Linux based wiki for work organization?
For an individual, I used to use WikidPad and quite like it.
-
Private Wiki Creation
There also are "serverless" wikis, like http://tiddlywiki.com/ (can be run as a standalone desktop app - see in the bottom, or Wiki on a Stick, or WikiPad
- Python 3.12.0 is to remove long-deprecated items

Ask HN: Programming Without a Build System?
Details I didn't include but should have (I wasn't sure I'd have any replies at all... I should have had more faith, sorry)
It's a bit of a ramble, sorry about that.
MSTOICAL[0] is a fork of an old C based Forth variant, it took some help from the HN community[1] to get it to compile in a modern 64 bit environment, for which I am very thankful. However, it uses AutoConf to configure, build, install, etc... and I can't for the life of me figure out how to remove all of that logic. (C isn't my primary language, I'm willing to learn that, but adding AutoConf on top of it was too much)
In order to work on that, I was willing to switch to Linux (Ubuntu)... got everything up and running for the most part, but then I couldn't access WikidPad[2], my local Wiki with my appointments, etc. I missed a doctors appointment because of that, so went back to Windows.
The issue is around wxWindows changing the names of variables in some calls. On Windows, you just download an EXE installer and you're good to go. I couldn't figure it out because the program seems to be unwilling to support newer Python versions. (I could be wrong)
I don't understand why they felt the need to make breaking changes to wxWindows, and the python is a bit too dense for me.
So finally... I'm back in Windows 10, and decided to try to craft together a twitter clone with a bunch of weird ideas that I tossed out at 3:30 am in a twitter thread, and put into a more coherent manifesto.[3]

Online World Organization for Novel
When it comes to organization I would recommend using a wiki tool. The interlinked articles in a wiki is super useful to build a web of information and help you not lose track of important details. Wikidpad is a great free desktop tool.

wikia for writers to work offline
Wikidpad is quite functional. It's not the prettiest but it does its job. I don't know if or how you can implement images. But it's free and maybe worth a try.

How to Create Virtual Environments in Python
Note that virtual environments assume you are using the same global version of Python. Often, this is not the case and additional tools like pyenv can be used alongside virtual environments when you need to switch between versions of Python itself on your local machine.

Integrating GPT in Your Project: Create an API for Anything Using LangChain and FastAPI
First of all, install the Python virtual environment from these links: 1 and 2. I developed my GPT-based API in Python version 3.8.18. Pick any Python versions >= 3.7.

Manage your Python Project End-to-End with PDM
Note: Most modern systems will probably have a system environment that meets this requirement, but if yours does not or if you prefer not to install anything in your system environment (even if it's just PDM) check out asdf or pyenv to help install and manage additional Python environments.

Introducing Flama for Robust Machine Learning APIs
When dealing with software development, reproducibility is key. This is why we encourage you to use Python virtual environments to set up an isolated environment for your project. Virtual environments allow the isolation of dependencies, which plays a crucial role to avoid breaking compatibility between different projects. We cannot cover all the details about virtual environments in this post, but we encourage you to learn more about venv, pyenv or conda for a better understanding on how to create and manage virtual environments.

Is KDE Desktop really snappier than XFCE these days as claimed?
For Python, with your use case I would avoid system packages, no matter the distro. It sounds like it would be worth setting up pyenv and working exclusively with virtual environments.

Python Versions and Release Cycles
For OSX there is homebrew or pyenv (pyenv is another solution on Linux). As pyenv compiles from source it will require setting up XCode (the Apple IDE) tools to support this which can be pretty bulky. Windows users have chocolatey but the issue there is it works off the binaries. That means it won't have the latest security release available since those are source only. Conda is also another solution which can be picked up by Visual Studio Code as available versions of Python making development easier. In the end it might be best to consider using WSL on Windows for installing a Linux version and using that instead.
