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.

Spooky Masks and Async Exceptions
In case anyone is interested, there's a long discussion on this ticket. Still hoping somebody will respond to my comment.
-
Async Control Flow
In safe-exception and uniftio it was decided to rethrow the original exception exactly because they decided to use uninterruptibleMask, see here for details.

Why exactly I want Boring Haskell to happen
unliftio (and safe-exceptions) contains a very controversial choice of of using uninterruptibleMask inside its bracket. The argument for it seem to come from this issue and comes from the fact that one of the most popular resource finalizers hClose is interruptible. This is a simplification. It is interruptible only if a file handle is used concurrently. Such usage of file handles is rather odd, and it suggest wrong architecture, for example leaking file handles using concurrency. When using file handles in synchronous setting, what withFile pattern encourages, hClose will not block and thus mask is enough.

Match against 'non symbol' ASCII characters
Perhaps the documentation for Char should contain examples of how you write the literals. Tracking as https://github.com/tomjaguarpaw/tilapia/issues/128

2022 State of Haskell Survey
Can you please report concrete examples here: https://github.com/tomjaguarpaw/tilapia/issues/new
I'll do what I can to improve the situation, but I need to know which packages precisely you are talking about.

Is Haskell Platform no longer supported?
Thanks! Tracking at https://github.com/tomjaguarpaw/tilapia/issues/109
-
Coming back to Haskell after a couple of years, what changes should I be aware of?
It would be nice with a "modern cabal for stack users" tutorial (ddg tells me it's an issue https://github.com/tomjaguarpaw/tilapia/issues/11 ), answering questions like
- A simple guide: set-up a Haskell development environment in Windows 10
-
Can't get things to work. It is normal to learn haskell with plain vim?
If you're on Windows and you're feeling brave you could try these new instructions developed by a collaborator of mine over at the tilapia project. If anything goes wrong with those instructions then please put a message on the pull request describing what the problem was and we'll try to get it fixed.
-
Haskell as a first timer - Am I missing something ?
Great! I'd be happy to have you on board. Please "Watch" the repo so that you are notified of discussions that happen there. Feel free to start your own discussions at any time by opening an issue.

Why exactly I want Boring Haskell to happen
Feel free to collaborate with me on Tilapia. At the very least I would welcome knowing about your ideas.
