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.

The GIL can now be disabled in Python's main branch
Those links are both fairly old. See PEP 703 [0] and Sam’s nogil-3.12 repo [1] for more current versions.

Async rust – are we doing it all wrong?
How would you do control flow and scheduling and parallelism and async efficiently with this code?
`db.save()`, `download()` are IO intensive whereas `document.query("a")` and `parse` is CPU intensive.
I think its work diagram looks like this: https://github.com/samsquire/dream-programming-language/blob...
I've tried to design a multithreaded architecture that is scalable which combines lightweight threads + thread pools for work + control threads for IO epoll or liburing loops:
Here's the high level diagram:
https://github.com/samsquire/ideas5/blob/main/NonblockingRun...
The secret is modelling control flow as a data flow problem and having a simple but efficient scheduler.
I wrote about schedulers here and binpacking work into time:

I also have a 1:M:N lightweight thread scheduler/multiplexer:

Ask HN: Could you show your personal blog here?
Thanks for posting this Ask HN question.
I journal ideas and thoughts about computers and software. I am interested in software architecture, parallelism, async, coroutines, database internals, programming language implementation, software design and the web.

Our Plan for Python 3.13
My deep interest is multithreaded code. For a software engineer working on business software, I'm not sure if they should be spending too much time debugging multithreaded bugs because they are operating at the wrong level of abstraction from my perspective for business operations.
I'm looking for an approach to writing concurrent code with parallelism that is elegant and easy to understand and hard to introduce bugs. This requires alternative programming approaches and in my perspective, alternative notations.
One such design uses monotonic state machines which can only move in one direction. I've designed a syntax and written a parser and very toy runtime for the notation.
https://github.com/samsquire/ideas5#56-stateful-circle-progr...
https://github.com/samsquire/ideas4#558-state-machine-formul...
The idea is inspired by LMAX Disruptor and queuing systems.

Is Parallel Programming Hard, and, If So, What Can You Do About It? v2023.06.11a
https://github.com/samsquire/ideas5/blob/main/NonblockingRun...
The design is that we have three groupings of thread types. The application starts up some application threads which are not associated with a request, these service multiconsumer multiproducer thread safe ringbuffers in lightweight threads with a Go-erlang-like lightweight process runtime. (My simple lightweight thread runtime is https://github.com/samsquire/preemptible-thread) We also multiplex multiple network clients sockets across a set number of kernel threads which I call control threads. Their responsibility is to dispatch work to a work stealing thread pool ASAP which has its own group of threads. So we pay a thread synchronization cost ONCE per IO which is the dispatch from the control thread to a thread pool thread. (Presumably this is fast, because the thread pool threads are all looping on a submission queue)
We split all IO and CPU tasks into two halves: submit and handle reply. I assume you can use liburing or epoll in the control threads. The same with CPU tasks and use ringbuffers to communicate between threads. We can always serve client's requests because we're never blocked on handling someone else's request. The control thread is always unblocked.
I think this article is good regarding Python's asyncio story:
