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.

(Learn 'Scheme)
Sweet, I'll have to give that a go :)
Another option in browser land is lips[0], which exclusively targets a js backend.
-
All Web frontend lisp projects
For Scheme implementations there are LIPS and biwascheme. I haven't done more than play around with them, so I can't really give an informed opinion about pros and cons or favorites.

Extending a Language — Writing Powerful Macros in Scheme
Your example revealed a bug in my Scheme interpreter. This is an example that fails to match:

May I see some of your projects? :)
Few of my Open Source projects: * jQuery terminal * LIPS Scheme * Gaiman * Sysend * Wayne

Async / Await in Scheme
(define promise (--> '>(fetch "https://lips.js.org/") (then (lambda (res) (res.text))) (then (lambda (text) (. (text.match #/\s*([^>]+?)\s*<\/h1>/) 1)))))

Yes we are men. Men is what we are.
ngl when I first saw the headline my first thought was, “Wait, bring CAR into JavaScript? Make it a Lisp? But hasn't it already been done?”
-
If you were hired to create a new distribution of Lisp, what would you include?
Languages like Biwa Scheme and LIPS Scheme are good for running Scheme in the browser. But I would prefer compiling Scheme code to JavaScript in the server, then serving the compiled JavaScript image to the browser.

Best REPL for a language
You can see a gif of my REPL in project README.
- Are there examples of using Lisp as an input file specification?

Any REPL that supports syntax highlighting and auto-indentation
If you're interested in how it looks like there is a gif in my project README https://github.com/jcubic/lips

IRS will officially launch free online tax filing service for 2024 tax season
I’ve been using https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes ; cross-checked with my manual form filing and it’s spot on. Print and mail and save the hassle :)

Ask HN: Anyone knows how to simplify taxes?
Yes.
We (PublicDomainCompany.com) are going to do it if someone doesn't beat us to it first. Will be a 2023 project for us (https://github.com/breck7/copypastetaxes).
I've been a supporter of https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes and they are doing amazing grunt work that will be a big part of the solution.
Also, here's a great image of the first income tax return:

Show HN: Calculator for US Individual Income tax, from 1970-present
Sort of tangentially, I'm working with other contributors on https://ustaxes.org, an open source tax filing webapp https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes.
Currently, many Federal tax forms are supported, as well as tax filing for the state of Illinois. Filing for Oregon and California is under development!

Sen. Warren pushes TurboTax for answers about its efforts to block free tax filing
I'm working with other contributors on https://ustaxes.org, an open source tax filing webapp https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes. The goal is to make tax filing free for everyone.

TurboTax’s Fight Against Free Tax Filing
There is https://ustaxes.org , an open-source tax filing application, but I'm not adventurous enough to use it when a mistake could be very expensive.

FTC Sues Intuit for Its Deceptive Turbotax “Free” Filing Campaign
I'm working with other contributors on https://ustaxes.org, an open source tax filing webapp https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes.
Currently, many Federal tax forms are supported, as well as tax filing for the state of Illinois. Filing for Oregon and California is under development!
Perhaps so. Though I found structural things with each of those projects that I did not like. For example, opentaxsolver's logic is a bunch of 'monolithic' C code, and I haven't been able to find any tests. UStaxes is better in that respect, but there I couldn't get past typescript, honestly, and they have code like https://github.com/ustaxes/UsTaxes/blob/master/src/forms/Y20... where they're relying on position of an item in the array to indicate which field it is. Not trying to disparage anyone, but I did not see evidence of an attention to detail I felt I could trust (and maybe that's just me and NIH syndrome).
What I would really like is to somehow extract out a representation of the tax logic into something separate from the business of collecting the data from the user, or even calculating the results. I'm not entirely sure what that would look like, maybe it would have to be some domain-specific language (eww) in order to be able to fully express the relationships and dependencies between different fields/forms.
But I think that tax logic portion is the difficult-to-maintain part, and also the portion different projects would benefit the most from sharing.

Ask HN: How does TurboTax get away with dark patterns?
There are a couple of open source projects like http://opentaxsolver.sourceforge.net/ and https://ustaxes.org/ ; perhaps we should support these to get to the point where they can actually replace TurboTax and H&R.
I bet the laws are unnecessarily complicated and they probably continue to get more complicated due to Intuit's lobbying but opposing that is a much more expensive proposition than supporting an open source project (with code, or financially).
