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.

A decade of developing a programming language
I highly recommend https://github.com/sdiehl/write-you-a-haskell as it is very developer friendly. It’s not complete, but it really gets the gears turning and will set you up for writing your own Hendley-Milner style type checker.

Type inference of letrec in Algorithm W
This is the best resource I know of: http://dev.stephendiehl.com/fun/006\_hindley\_milner.html https://github.com/sdiehl/write-you-a-haskell/blob/master/chapter7/poly_constraints/src/Infer.hs

Monthly Hask Anything (November 2021)
I feel like Write You A Haskell was set out to introduce some of these foundational concepts in the right order: lambda calculus, to system-f to core - but that's more of a skeleton, right? What about logic? proofs? Is there anything else ... that can all be put together to create a "course" of some sort to master the theoretical concepts that Haskell stands upon?

Rust for projects that demand OOP type programming
You might want to read on Algebra-Driven Design and Data Oriented Design. If you are greedy, both books were pirated.

Does anyone use formal methods to validate the behaviour of programs/software at their job?
I would like to do this more. At the moment I don't do formal verification. However, I often borrow methodology from the excellent book Algebra-Driven Design (text available on GitHub but support the author if you find it useful!) when designing systems. This means I define algebraic data types to describe the program and the laws that relate the different types, and use that to guide implementation in a language that doesn't support ADTs.

Do you feel static types have "won the war", so to speak?
Their approach might be to express their business logic as a carefully selected collection of types and laws, as described in Algebra-Driven Design (the full text is available on GitHub, please support the author if you find it useful though). I recommend this book to everyone because, even if you don't use this approach to design your programs, it's an excellent way to think about problems and better understand the problem space.

Can someone message me explaining category theory and representation theory? I’m trying to choose a topic for independent study and need some help.
If you have an interest in computer science, category theory is very useful there. Here's a good book on the topic (Algebra-Driven Design, by Sandy Maguire).
-
Does anybody know a simple algorithm for generating unit tests given a function's code?
This reminds me of QuickSpec (different from QuickCheck) in Haskell. It takes Haskell code and finds the Mathematical laws that the code supports. It does this using a sort of smart random search. I learned about this as part of the Algebra Driven Design book.
- Source material for Algebra-Driven Design now available!

Advice on designing algebras
Sorry probably worth pointing out that I'm not referring to an Algebra in the pure math sense. I'm more referring to specifying algebraic laws that an API would have to satisfy as talked about in this book https://leanpub.com/algebra-driven-design.
