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.

Polars
Real-world performance is complicated since data science covers a lot of use cases.
If you're just reading a small CSV to do analysis on it, then there will be no human-perceptible difference between Polars and Pandas. If you're reading a larger CSV with 100k rows, there still won't be much of a perceptible difference.
Per this (old) benchmark, there are differences once you get into 500MB+ territory: https://h2oai.github.io/db-benchmark/

DuckDB performance improvements with the latest release
I do think it was important for duckdb to put out a new version of the results as the earlier version of that benchmark [1] went dormant with a very old version of duckdb with very bad performance, especially against polars.

Show HN: SimSIMD vs. SciPy: How AVX-512 and SVE make SIMD cleaner and ML faster

> Apache Ballista and Polars do Apache Arrow and SIMD.
> The Polars homepage links to the "Database-like ops benchmark" of {Polars, data.table, DataFrames.jl, ClickHouse, cuDF, spark, (py)datatable, dplyr, pandas, dask, Arrow, DuckDB, Modin,} but not yet PostgresML? https://h2oai.github.io/db-benchmark/ *

Pandas vs. Julia – cheat sheet and comparison
I agree with your conclusion but want to add that switching from Julia may not make sense either.
According to these benchmarks: https://h2oai.github.io/db-benchmark/, DF.jl is the fastest library for some things, data.table for others, polars for others. Which is fastest depends on the query and whether it takes advantage of the features/properties of each.
For what it's worth, data.table is my favourite to use and I believe it has the nicest ergonomics of the three I spoke about.

Any faster Python alternatives?
Same. Numba does wonders for me in most scenarios. Yesterday I've discovered pola-rs and looks like I will add it to the stack. It's API is similar to pandas. Have a look at the benchmarks of cuDF, spark, dask, pandas compared to it: Benchmarks

Pandas 2.0 (with pyarrow) vs Pandas 1.3 - Performance comparison
The syntax has similarities with dplyr in terms of the way you chain operations, and it’s around an order of magnitude faster than pandas and dplyr (there’s a nice benchmark here). It’s also more memory-efficient and can handle larger-than-memory datasets via streaming if needed.

Python "programmers" when I show them how much faster their naive code runs when translated to C++ (this is a joke, I love python)
Bad examples. Both numpy and pandas are notoriously un-optimized packages, losing handily to pretty much all their competitors (R, Julia, kdb+, vaex, polars). See https://h2oai.github.io/db-benchmark/ for a partial comparison.

AutoCodeRover resolves 22% of real-world GitHub in SWE-bench lite
Thank you for your interest. There are some interesting examples in the SWE-bench-lite benchmark which are resolved by AutoCodeRover:
- From sympy: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues/13643. AutoCodeRover's patch for it: https://github.com/nus-apr/auto-code-rover/blob/main/results...
- Another one from scikit-learn: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/13070. AutoCodeRover's patch (https://github.com/nus-apr/auto-code-rover/blob/main/results...) modified a few lines below (compared to the developer patch) and wrote a different comment.
There are more examples in the results directory (https://github.com/nus-apr/auto-code-rover/tree/main/results).

Polars
sklearn is adding support through the dataframe interchange protocol (https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/25896). scipy, as far as I know, doesn't explicitly support dataframes (it just happens to work when you wrap a Series in `np.array` or `np.asarray`). I don't know about PyTorch but in general you can convert to numpy.

[D] Major bug in Scikit-Learn's implementation of F-1 score
Wow, from the upvotes on this comment, it really seems like a lot of people think that this is the correct behavior! I have to say I disagree, but if that's what you think, don't just sit there upvoting comments on Reddit; instead go to this PR and tell the Scikit-Learn maintainers not to "fix" this "bug", which they are currently planning to do!

Ask HN: Learning new coding patterns – how to start?
I was in a similar boat to yours - Worked in data science and since then have made a move to data engineering and software engineering for ML services.
I would recommend you look into the Design Patterns book by the Gang of Four. I found it particularly helpful to make extensible code that doesn't break specially with abstract classes, builders and factories. I would also recommend looking into the book The Object Oriented Thought Process to understand why traditional OOP is build the way it is.
You can also look into the source code of popular data science libraries such as sklearn (https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/tree/main/sklea...) and see how a lot of them have Base classes to define shared functionality between object of the same nature.
As others mentioned, I would also encourage you to try and implement design patterns in your everyday work - maybe you can make a Factory to load models or preprocessors that follow the same Abstract class?

Transformers as Support Vector Machines
It looks like you've been the victim of some misinformation. As Dr_Birdbrain said, an SVM is a convex problem with unique global optimum. sklearn.SVC relies on libsvm which initializes the weights to 0 [0]. The random state is only used to shuffle the data to make probability estimates with Platt scaling [1]. Of the random_state parameter, the sklearn documentation for SVC [2] says
Controls the pseudo random number generation for shuffling the data for probability estimates. Ignored when probability is False. Pass an int for reproducible output across multiple function calls. See Glossary.

Link Prediction With node2vec in Physics Collaboration Network
Firstly, we need a connection to Memgraph so we can get edges, split them into two parts (train set and test set). For edge splitting, we will use scikit-learn. In order to make a connection towards Memgraph, we will use gqlalchemy.

WiFilter is a RaspAP install extended with a squidGuard proxy to filter adult content. Great solution for a family, schools and/or public access point
The ML component is based on scikit-learn which differentiates it from purely list-based filters. It couples this with a full-featured wireless router (RaspAP) in a single device, so it fulfills the needs of a use case not entirely addressed by Pi-hole.
