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.

Curator v0.1.0: Auto-organize large movie collections (AI language detection+sync)
Right now it's in early stages: It can detect languages from audio and subtitles (Whisper+LangID) with good results so far tried with 52 movies here (failed with just 1 which was silent). I'm currently working on synchronization: Hopefully subtitle timestamps and audio sound effects can suffice for cross-correlation. After that, I'll work on the TUI (maybe add a proper GUI too) to improve UX.

Announcing Lingua 1.0.0: The most accurate natural language detection library for Python, suitable for long and short text alike
Python is widely used in natural language processing, so there are a couple of comprehensive open source libraries for this task, such as Google's CLD 2 and CLD 3, langid and langdetect. Unfortunately, except for the last one they have two major drawbacks:

The hand-picked selection of the best Python libraries and tools of 2022
Hi u/dekked_, perhaps you want to add my natural language detection library Lingua to the NLP section of the long tail. It is pretty unique among the natural language detection libraries for Python because it is able to detect multiple languages in mixed-language text. It is also one of the most accurate libraries when detecting the language of short text. I would very much appreciate if you added my library to your list.
- Lingua 1.2.0 - The most accurate natural language detection library for Python - now with support for detecting multiple languages in mixed-language text.
- Lingua 1.1.0 - The most accurate natural language detection library for Python

Lingua-Go, the most accurate language detection for Go
I've compared the Python implementation of Lingua with fasttext. Lingua performs clearly better. Look here: https://github.com/pemistahl/lingua-py#4-how-good-is-it
- Lingua 1.0.1: The most accurate natural language detection library for Python - previously for Python >= 3.9, now compatible with Python >= 3.7
- Announcing Lingua 1.0.0: The most accurate natural language detection library for Python, suitable for long and short text alike
