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.

That people produce HTML with string templates is telling us something
(Note that Rum is also a React wrapper, but you don't have to use that part of it; you can simply use it for static rendering of HTML.)

Common Beginner Mistakes with React
I love React as long as it has a thin skim of clojurescript over top. Rum is the underdog compared to reagent but is still my weapon of choice - https://github.com/tonsky/rum
Was disillusioned when I had to dive into a pure js project using it.
The real benefit, I think, is that you get the well established Clojure idioms around isolating and managing mutable state.
State is stored in a Atom, which is atomically mutated, and reactive components essentially 'subscribe' to updates upon that atom to re render.
The mutations can be handled centrally by a message queue, but really, event sourcing like that is not always needed.

Giving new life to existing Om legacy SPAs with re-om
We've been using re-om during the last 6 months and it has really made our lives much easier. Before open-sourcing it, we decided to extract from re-om the code that was independent of any view technology. This code is now part of reffectory and it might be used as the base for creating frameworks similar to re-om for other view technologies, like for example rum, or even for pure Clojure projects.

Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
I've had an in-browser animated meme editor in the freezer for a few years now:
https://www.ultime.me/
The idea came when I wanted to make a simple animated meme, but found it exceedingly frustrating to caption a simple animated gif with nice text options (like outlines). Over time, it's grown to have full keyframe animation for all text and image/video clip attributes, so it is actually pretty capable short of using a desktop video editing/fx package.
That said, the UX is bad and I should feel bad :) . I made the deliberate choice up front to focus on the underlying data model and internal APIs rather than polishing the UI - as such, it is very much an engineer interface. It would be more usable with some demo videos or call-to-action helpers for new users, but really the UX just needs reworked. Especially around animation/keyframing.
On the bright side, the clean data model and content addressable assets leave the path clear to add things like collaborative multi-user meme editing, git like meme-forking(and diffing?), and so forth.
Started it about 3 years ago when I had a period of mostly free time to play. It's been idle for a long time due to starting a family and getting consulting momentum, but I'm intending to make the time this year to polish the UX to the point of general usability and experiment with promotion/monetization. Failing that, I'll probably just open source it and write a couple of blog posts about the internals.
It is more or less a static web app, with no server side function short of some optional stats collection. It's written in Clojurescript/Clojure and uses https://github.com/tonsky/rum as a React wrapper and

Nearsightedness is at epidemic levels – and the problem begins in childhood
Vision therapy for myopia helps some people, but not everyone, likely due to genetic and neuroplasticity differences, https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu.... Nevertheless, many of the principles are useful for children whose eyes and brains are still developing.

Tesla driver arrested for homicide after running over motorcyclist on Autopilot
I'm a huge Tesla skeptic, but Tesla and Musk are lightning rods for tabloid-style garbage that doesn't belong on HN, so it doesn't surprise me that we often see negative Tesla content flagged to death. Meanwhile we also see plenty of content that hits the front page and stays there [0].
Do you have examples of professional, interesting Tesla content that got flagged?
[0] More than half of the past year's most popular Tesla articles were negative: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=tru...

The Man Who Killed Google Search
It's April 23rd, 2024, and I am still looking for a good, reliable, honest and simple search engine.
All I want to do is search.
No AI.
No ads.
No shopping.
Please don't "Answer my question." I enjoy doing my own original research, thanks.
I'm entirely willing - wanting even - to pay for it.
Currently Kagi has my $, but I'm saddened and frustrated that they're not even focused on Search, they're focused on AI[1] and t-shirts.
Amazingly, in 2024, there is still a market opportunity for a good search engine.
It can't really just be me, can it?

Tesla Recalls All Cybertrucks for Faulty Accelerator Pedals
Most likely because there have been oodles of low-quality stories on these topics. We turned the flags off on this one since it maybe rises above the noise (see https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so... for past explanations on how we approach that).

Show HN: What Are You Working On?
Hey HN,
I'm sure you've seen the monthly "Ask HN: What Are You Working On?" headlines on [Hacker News](https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...).
Honestly, it's my favorite topic because it's packed with insights about what other hackers are up to.
I wondered what it would be like if instead of just a headline, there was a whole website where hackers could post daily updates, and where we could follow the hackers we're interested in for their latest updates. And so, this web site was born.
I hope it gets used frequently so we can all benefit from it together. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Let me know what you think!

Not Apply to YC
I don't know what one thing you're referring to, but it's a core principle of HN to try to avoid repetition, and especially the repetition+indignation combo, which is the commonest and most tedious thing on the internet.

Moxie: I'm no longer involved at Signal
not sure. I searched comments: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=fal...
Most recent are more culture wars stuff but some earlier ones appear to suggesting a degree of alignment with the USA government.

What are some alternatives?
pgvector - Open-source vector similarity search for Postgres
duckduckgo-locales - Translation files for <a href="https://duckduckgo.com"> </a>
pg_cjk_parser - Postgres CJK Parser pg_cjk_parser is a fts (full text search) parser derived from the default parser in PostgreSQL 11. When a postgres database uses utf-8 encoding, this parser supports all the features of the default parser while splitting CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters into 2-gram tokens. If the database's encoding is not utf-8, the parser behaves just like the default parser.
v - Simple, fast, safe, compiled language for developing maintainable software. Compiles itself in <1s with zero library dependencies. Supports automatic C => V translation. https://vlang.io
recoll - recoll with webui in a docker container
parser - 📜 Extract meaningful content from the chaos of a web page
vtpl - Vtpl is a php template engine that ensures proper separations of concerns, the frontend logic is separated from presentation. The goal is to keep the html unchanged for better maintainability for both backend and frontend developers
readability - A standalone version of the readability lib
dream-html - Generate HTML markup from your OCaml Dream backend server
yq - Command-line YAML, XML, TOML processor - jq wrapper for YAML/XML/TOML documents
