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 Is Wrong with TOML?
Maybe you'd like jsonnet: https://jsonnet.org/
I find it particularly useful for configurations that often have repeated boilerplate, like ansible playbooks or deploying a bunch of "similar-but" services to kubernetes (with https://tanka.dev).
Dhall is also quite interesting, with some tradeoffs: https://dhall-lang.org/
A few years ago I did a small comparison by re-implementing one of my simpler ansible playbooks: https://github.com/retzkek/ansible-dhall-jsonnet

Intercal, YAML, and Other Horrible Programming Languages
A few months ago I explored using Dhall and Jsonnet to re-write an Ansible playbook [0,1]. I wanted to like Dhall, but found the type system got in the way more than it helped, while Jsonnet was very productive and a huge improvement over YAML.

Show HN: Dotenv, if it is a Unix utility
I think direnv already does a good job in this space, and it's already available in your package manager.

Mise is a polyglot tool version manager
I switched from asdf to mise after a comment on lobste.rs[1] suggested I do so a few months ago, and I have been very happy with it.
It sands off some of asdf's sharp UI edges and provides a somewhat larger but still reasonable feature set; I've also replaced most of my direnv[2] usage with it.
The mise -> asdf comparison page is useful[3]

Nix-direnv is a quality of life improvement
I also made the export diff configurable, motivated by this post: https://github.com/direnv/direnv/pull/1233

Conditional Git Configuration
Nice.
For years I've been using [direnv](https://direnv.net/) for this, setting environment variables which git picks up. This looks like a more feature complete equivalent, although to be honest I only really need switching of committer email and the SSH key used.

Development Environments with Guix, similar to devenv.sh
Direnv, for the uninitiated, loads and unloads environment variables when directories are entered and exited. Under every project folder there is a `$PROJ_DIR/.envrc` which contains:
-
Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
buffer-env: A pure-Elisp version of the direnv utility. Useful to make Emacs aware of Python virtualenvs (which, judging by the questions posted here, is unfortunately still a complication for a lot of people). Similar to (and inspired by) envrc, but doesn't require the direnv program.

golang cli vs env var in windows?
You can look at direnv to see this in action as they wrote shell hooks that get loaded into the shell profile and are executed on every prompt. https://direnv.net/

Nix Survival Mode: macOS upgrades won't break Nix anymore
Yes, most Nix users employ https://direnv.net or the equivalent for your IDE of choice. Emacs for instance has https://github.com/purcell/envrc which set per-buffer variables.
