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.

Attempting each AOC in a language starting with each letter of the alphabet
I'm posting my (absolutely atrocious) solutions on https://github.com/rpbeltran/aoc2023 if anyone is interested.

Array Languages vs. the Curse of the Spreadsheet
This is what I love in Uiua[1]. That operators can be written as english words instead of unicode symbols. Makes it quite similar looking to functuinal point free code.

k on pdp11
you may also enjoy uiua (https://www.uiua.org/) which uses these alien glyphs but is even more alien because it's a concatenative language (stack oriented), like forth or postscript, but to make it even more alien it's written right to left. For example 1+2 is written "+ 1 2" (in forth it would be "1 2 +")
The language and the site are brilliant and I think worth 30m of your time skimming through and trying out the examples in the online editor / tutorial.

If you're fine with tacit array-oriented (ie APL-like): Uiua.

Vector database is not a separate database category
As a lover of array languages, I remember being excited to read a futurist article on vector processors and programming languages. It was written right before Wes McKinney worked on Pandas (the J programming language influenced him), and I thought J/APL or another array language was going to explode. J has Jd, in which J is fully integrated. This did not come to pass (yet). No matter, I still enjoy array languages anyway. There's a new array language, uiua[1], that is a mix of array and stack concepts with a good standard library including audio and graphics.

Uiua: A minimal stack-based, array-based language
Yeah
> The main language that inspired Uiua is BQN. While I had heard about APL before, BQN was my first real exposure to the power of the array paradigm. I think the language is an astounding feat of engineering. Marshall is both a genius and a great communicator.

Also, a week ago there were only two contributors to the project: 1000+ by kaikalii, and this single commit by Marshall:
