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
ETH Zurich is using it for their physics sim courses, University of Utah is using it for simulations (SIGGRAPH 2022), OPPO (they make smart devices running Android), Kuaishou uses it for liquid and gas simulation on GPUs. Lots of GPU accelerated sim stuff.

Taichi v1.5.0 Released! See what's new👇
Check our the realease note (https://github.com/taichi-dev/taichi/releases) for more improvements.

You Don't Know Jax
I've recently started using Taichi (https://taichi-lang.org/) for numerical codes and the fact it doesn't try to trick you into thinking it's numpy is a nice "feature". ;)
- How can I get into this type of animation with programming?
-
Taichi v1.4.0 released!
Taichi v1.4.0 is released! See what's new: - Taichi AOT, along with a native Taichi Runtime library: Native applications can now load compiled AOT modules and launch Taichi kernels without a Python interpreter. - Taichi ndarray: An array object that holds contiguous multi-dimensional data to allow easy data exchange with external libraries. - Dynamic index: Use variable indices whenever necessary on all backends without affecting the performance of those matrices with only constant indices. See deprecation and more improvements in the release note.

Is Nvidia CUDA Used in VFX Software Tools?
Oh, then if you're not already tied to any particular VFX software, I might as well recommend Taichi again.
-
Marching squares algorithm implemented with Taichi: Struct Taichi fields and dynamic SNodes are used to represent line segments, and linear interpolation applied to smoothen the boundaries.
It's an upgrade of a basic version. See changes to the source code here: https://github.com/taichi-dev/taichi/pull/6851

Writing Python like it's Rust
That would be interesting! You might already be aware. But there's mypyc[0], which is an AOT compiler for Python code with type hints (that, IIRC, mypy uses to compile itself into a native extension).
Wanted to give you a head-start on the lit-review for your students I guess :)

The different uses of Python type hints
https://github.com/mypyc/mypyc
> Mypyc compiles Python modules to C extensions. It uses standard Python type hints to generate fast code. Mypyc uses mypy to perform type checking and type inference.
> Mypyc can compile anything from one module to an entire codebase. The mypy project has been using mypyc to compile mypy since 2019, giving it a 4x performance boost over regular Python.
I have not experience a 4x boost, rather between 1.5x and 2x. I guess it depends on the code.

The Python Paradox
Funny how emergence works with tools. Give a language too few tools but viral circumstances - the ecosystem diverges (Lisps, Javascript). Give it too long an iteration time but killer guarantees, you end up with committees. Python not falling into either of these traps should be understood as nothing short of magic in emergence.
I only recently discovered that python's reference typechecker, mypy, has a small side project for typed python to emit C [1], written entirely in python. Nowadays with python's rich specializer ecosystem (LLVM, CUDA, and just generally vectorized math), the value of writing a small program in anything else diminishes quickly.
Imagine reading the C++wg release notes in the same mood that you would the python release notes.

Is it time for Python to have a statically-typed, compiled, fast superset?
More recent approaches include mypyc which is (on the tin) quite close to what you describe, and taichi that lives in between.
