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.

Getting started with the Mojo programming language
If you have suggestions that could improve the Python experience, consider proposing these through the Python Enhancement Proposal (PEP) process. The Mojo team actively encourages this, as it views Mojo as a new member of the Python family.
- PEP 684 was accepted – Per-interpreter GIL in Python 3.12
- Disallow import * for your Python package

Ask HN: Just Finished Stroustrup's 'Practice and Principles'. What Next?
after 1-6, should have a good idea of what type of documentation / coding standards / tools / levels of abstraction want to have/see for a projects source code/deliverable. :-)

Don't carelessly rely on fixed-size unsigned integers overflow
Yet development is carried via consensus between developers and users, there are places where users come to discuss thinks and ask questsion, there are place where resolutions are described in a POSITA-understandable terms and so on.

Compiling Pattern Matching
I've used it. :)

Pattern matching macros vs functions?
You can see it, for instance, in the Trivia library ( https://github.com/guicho271828/trivia/blob/master/level0/impl.lisp ): the macro match0 is a thin wrapper around the function parse-patterns, and this, in turn, calls the function make-pattern-predicate which performs the recursive destructuring of patterns.

From Common Lisp to Julia
I can agree it's not the same, but what's the point? A more interesting disagreement is that I wouldn't say it's a downside (though yes, there are tradeoffs). Especially in Current Year when open source is fashionable and pretty much every language has a package manager to make pulling in or swapping out dependencies pretty easy, I don't see the issue. It's also interesting to note that of all the things Clojure did to "fix" shortcomings of past languages with a more opinionated (and often more correct I'll admit) design philosophy that users are forced to use (even when it's not more correct), infix-math-out-of-the-box wasn't one of them. I don't think that specifically really hurt Clojure adoption. (But of course Clojure is reasonably extensible too so it also has a macro package to get the functionality, though it's more fragile especially around needing spaces because it's not done with reader macros.)
I've brought the library up many times because CL, unlike so many other languages, really lets you extend it. Want a static type system? https://github.com/coalton-lang/coalton/ Want pattern matching? No need to wait for PEP 636, https://github.com/guicho271828/trivia/ If all that keeps someone from trying CL, or from enjoying it as much as they could because of some frustration or another, due to lacking out of the box, chances are it is available through a library.

LEM - What If Emacs Was Multithreaded
Great libraries like trivia, iterate/for/alternative loop libraries, alexandria, and a hundred others. Common Lisp is a general purpose programming language with good support for ffi, working with files, databases, images, audio, etc. Just skim awesome-cl if you haven't. You could argue this doesn't have to do with the language, but a lot of these libraries are so good (or even possible) in part because of language features elisp does not have.

Pattern Matching Accepted for Python
> After much deliberation, the Python Steering Council is happy to announce that we have chosen to accept PEP 634, and its companion PEPs 635 and 636, collectively known as the Pattern Matching PEPs
This is why I'm still enamored with Lisp. One doesn't wait around for the high priests to descent from their lofty towers of much deep pontification and debate with shiny, gold tablets inscribed with how the PEPs may be, on behalf of the plebes. One just adds new language feature themselves, eg. pattern matching[1] and software transactional memory[2].

Show HN: Powerful Python Pattern Matching Library
The source is impressively simple! Good job!
I have been implementing a pattern matcher for scheme based on the Balland pattern optimized, and every time I see pattern matchers for python I always get the feeling that the code you are replacing have to be truly awful for the rather contrived pattern matching syntax to be a net win. Compare any of the python pattern matchers to something like trivia in Common Lisp [0] and you see what I mean.
How do people use the python pattern matchers? I am genuinely curious. One benefit that I see is that you can build patterns at run-time which could be useful.
