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.

How Do Nested Static Generic Types Work When Their Outer Types Are Also Generic?
Your example runs as I'd expect. I'm using DotNext's TypeMap and am not understanding why underlying arrays (entries) are indexed differently for two instances of the same type am seeing what I expected. I obviously idioted.

Ask HN: Examples of Top C# Code?
"DotNEXT" is a repo that enhances the code from .NET core, and has examples of using new API's that you can't even find tutorials for on the internet/examples from in public code.
For instance, there's been a class since .NET 6, "RandomAccess", for high-performance random-access file I/O (potentially async), and I couldn't find a single damn use of it on the internet.
But then this repo had a whole utility class for it, and it's chock full of similar things:
https://github.com/dotnet/dotNext/blob/d4111528297ff3b6567b9...
Similarly, I would recommend stuff by the .NET core team.
I'm particular biased towards the low-level/interop team. Anything by Tanner Gooding is great, stuff by Michal Strehovský, Aaron Robinson, Elinor Fung.

Faster MySQL with HTTP/3
MySqlConnector (the most popular .NET library for MySQL, and the one that I authored) has supported protocol compression for many years: https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector/issues/31.

Implementing the MySQL server protocol for fun and profit
> I kept technical notes about the protocol, to serve as a future reference for myself and for other developers.
As someone who's written a MySQL client (in C#: https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector), I'd be very interested to see your notes. Are they available anywhere, or were they the confidential IP of your client?
> Unsurprisingly, bugs were uncovered every time a new client was added.
I've faced the same thing, from a client perspective. Every time a new server is tested (MySQL, MariaDB, Amazon Aurora, Azure Database for MySQL, etc.), I find slightly different interpretations of the protocol and have to accommodate them.

Ask HN: Examples of Top C# Code?
I have had the pleasure of contributing to a couple different networked drivers with very talented maintainers that I like to use as references.
One supports a wide array of Framework versions and has both Sync and Async I/O, as it must to implement the ADO.NET database driver interfaces. Reading the internals really highlight the way that .NET has evolved over the years and what must be done in each target version to maximize performance:
https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector
The other supports .NET 6 only with Async I/O only. This support policy seems to be the way that "modern" .NET development is headed, as .NET 6 will be the floor for LTS .NET (formerly .NET Core) releases in a few months. Async APIs only greatly simplify development, and make it simpler to remain performant when targeting WASM.

As a library maintainer, one thing I often wonder about is how to indicate .NET version support. One option would be for the major version of the library to track the major version of .NET, so if I were to publish a new library today then start with .NET 6 support and start with version number 6.0.0 instead of 1.0.0. This would limit the library to only making breaking changes when the .NET version changes though.

Need some help/direction reading CSV into MySQL without duplication
Use the MySqlConnector to load the data into a temp table using the bulk copy API. Both of my libraries implement the IDataReader (DbDataReader) interface, so they can be directly used with the bulk copy APIs. Then insert into the final table from the temp table filtering out rows that are already in the final table.

Performance Improvements in .NET 6
I'm the author of what you might call the "new" MySQL ADO.NET library: https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector
I agree with your impression that developers of the other library don't seem to be "plugged in to" the .NET ecosystem. As an independent developer (not affiliated with Oracle or Microsoft), I've been able to influence GitHub PRs that shape the ADO.NET API for .NET 6.0, just by showing up and contributing; I haven't seen anyone from the Oracle MySQL team participating. Meanwhile, they violate basic principles of the .NET Framework Design Guidelines that have been around for over a decade (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/design-guid...), which makes their library feel alien to a .NET programmer (regardless of the quality issues it might have).
