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.

Optimize sgemm on RISC-V platform
I don't believe there is any official documentation on this, but https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/49430 for example added prefetching to the marking phase of a GC which saw speedups on x86, but not on M1.

3. dispatch on all the arguments
the first solution is clean, but people really like dispatch.
the second makes calling functions in the function call syntax weird, because the first argument is privileged semantically but not syntactically.
the third makes calling functions in the method call syntax weird because the first argument is privileged syntactically but not semantically.
the closest things to this i can think of off the top of my head in remotely popular programming languages are: nim, lisp dialects, and julia.
nim navigates the dispatch conundrum by providing different ways to define free functions for different dispatch-ness. the tutorial gives a good overview: https://nim-lang.org/docs/tut2.html
lisps of course lack UFCS.
see here for a discussion on the lack of UFCS in julia: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/31779
so to sum up the answer to the original question: because it's only obvious how to make it nice and tidy like you're wanting if you sacrifice function dispatch, which is ubiquitous for good reason!

Potential of the Julia programming language for high energy physics computing
No. It runs natively on ARM.
julia> versioninfo() Julia Version 1.9.3 Commit bed2cd540a1 (2023-08-24 14:43 UTC) Build Info: Official https://julialang.org/ release
The one you need is this which is already merged but was after the 1.10 feature freeze so it has to wait till 1.11, though you can test it with nightly builds which is available on julialang site: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/51435
Unfortunately, the core devs are not too chatty about standalone binaries, because of how Julia's internals are set there are going to be a lot of unforeseen challenges, so they are not trying to promise how things will be rather let's wait and see how things will turnout. Since packagecompiler.jl already has C ABI and one goal discussed about binaries being easily callable from other languages and vice versa, I would bet that it will have shared libraries.

Rust std:fs slower than Python
https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/51086#issuecomment...
So while this "fixes" the issue, it'll introduce a confusing time delay between you freeing the memory and you observing that in `htop`.
But according to https://jemalloc.net/jemalloc.3.html you can set `opt.muzzy_decay_ms = 0` to remove the delay.
Still, the musl author has some reservations against making `jemalloc` the default:
https://www.openwall.com/lists/musl/2018/04/23/2
> It's got serious bloat problems, problems with undermining ASLR, and is optimized pretty much only for being as fast as possible without caring how much memory you use.
With the above-mentioned tunables, this should be mitigated to some extent, but the general "theme" (focusing on e.g. performance vs memory usage) will likely still mean "it's a tradeoff" or "it's no tradeoff, but only if you set tunables to what you need".

Julia as a unifying end-to-end workflow language on the Frontier exascale system
I don't really know what kind of rebuttal you're looking for, but I will link my HN comments from when this was first posted for some thoughts: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31396861#31398796. As I said, in the linked post, I'm quite skeptical of the business of trying to assess relative buginess of programming in different systems, because that has strong dependencies on what you consider core vs packages and what exactly you're trying to do.
However, bugs in general suck and we've been thinking a fair bit about what additional tooling the language could provide to help people avoid the classes of bugs that Yuri encountered in the post.
The biggest class of problems in the blog post, is that it's pretty clear that `@inbounds` (and I will extend this to `@assume_effects`, even though that wasn't around when Yuri wrote his post) is problematic, because it's too hard to write. My proposal for what to do instead is at https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/50641.
Another common theme is that while Julia is great at composition, it's not clear what's expected to work and what isn't, because the interfaces are informal and not checked. This is a hard design problem, because it's quite close to the reasons why Julia works well. My current thoughts on that are here: https://github.com/Keno/InterfaceSpecs.jl but there's other proposals also.

Getaddrinfo() on glibc calls getenv(), oh boy
Doesn't musl have the same issue? https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/34726#issuecomment...
I also wonder about OSX's libc. Newer versions seem to have some sort of locking https://github.com/apple-open-source-mirror/Libc/blob/master...
but older versions (from 10.9) don't have any lockign: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/Libc/blob/Libc-99...

Or patterns proposal: Prefix signalling or just infix?
Additionally, while this proposal is focused on the simple implementation and so in the current proposal or patterns do not bind any variables as per #522, if we do get settled on syntax and then later wish to expand to allow binding variables as in #43, then the syntax is again clean and discoverable.

Amendmend proposal: Changed syntax for Or patterns
as syntax is contentious a topic as ever, David (the main proposal author) and I would like to invite you to give your input on https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/585, where we propose to change the syntax of the accepted proposal #522 introducing Or patterns. In particular, we'd like to know

{-# WARNING #-} for Data.List.{head,tail} in future GHC 9.8
It's coming: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/541
Right. Being able to disable "custom type warnings" at use sites was part of an earlier proposal (https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/454) but it ended up being shelved.

High-Performance Haskell?
The lack of concatMap fusion is a notorious issue in stream fusion. I recently implemented Higher Order Patterns in Rewrite Rules which should make it possible to write a rewrite rule for fusing concatMap in GHC 9.8.

The Haskell Playground supports GHC 9.6 alpha 2! You can now preview features like the error codes and the TypeData extension!
The initial proposal was data kind, but in the discussion some people didn't like the word "kind".
