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.

DrRacket 8.7 crashes to desktop on Windows...does anybody know how to prevent these?
I've filed a bug report on Github: https://github.com/racket/drracket/issues/596

Emacs-like editors written in Common Lisp
The original version of DrRacket was written in C, but it has been rewritten in Racket a long time ago. https://github.com/racket/drracket
I use a mix of DrRacket, WinEdt and Geany (with more color in the matched parenthesis).

What language for an IDE
To be fair, I'm not exactly sure which parts of emacs are written in C, but all extensions which make it more than an editor (i.e. an IDE) are interpreted lisp. Still, I'm not convinced. Another example, DrRacket, the IDE for Racket is written entirely in Racket, and that's plenty fast as far as I can tell*. It's a bit slow to start up, but that's all Racket programs.

Ask HN: Does anyone Lisp without Emacs?
Racket (https://racket-lang.org) has an IDE (DrRacket) which isn't EMACS. ARC (which powers hacker news) is (was?) written in Racket.

Douglas Crockford, author of ‘Javascript: the good parts’ and ‘How Javascript works’ will be giving the keynote presentation From Here To Lambda And Back Again at the thirteenth RacketCon.
Nice! Repeating a comment I just made on HN: I signed up for RacketCon, will be joining remotely. I am looking forward to it a lot. Usually I use the Racket language perhaps for 10% of my personal projects, but I am currently writing a Racket AI book, so all things Racket are of current interest. Past RacketCons have been a lot of fun. I usually use Common Lisp, but Racket is batteries included Scheme, and more, and is a very pleasant language and ecosystem. Just in case you don’t have Racket installed: https://racket-lang.org/

Ask HN: What is the most suitable Scheme implementation to learn today?
I'd suggest Racket (https://racket-lang.org) which is a batteries-included language environment that includes scheme and has a lot of high-quality documentation.
Guile (https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/) isn't quite as learner-focused but is another great choice.

Setting up a Scheme coding environment in VS code?
The Racket fork of CS supports Apple Silicon natively, and can be installed independently: https://github.com/racket/racket/blob/master/racket/src/ChezScheme/BUILDING Chez adds a few features (threads, ffi, ...) to R6RS; there is a useful combined index to TSPL4 and the CS User Guide at http://cisco.github.io/ChezScheme/csug9.5/csug_1.html

Is SICP an overkill for a 14 year old?
If you're using SICP in Scheme (or are you doing the JS version?) then you may want to look at How to Design Programs. It uses Racket which is a Scheme descendent so much of the language you've learned in SICP will work in it without issue. It also has a pretty good set of GUI and drawing capabilities you can find through the Racket docs page and will use some of with HTDP.
