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.

Show HN: PRQL – A Proposal for a Better SQL
Awesome! Would love to see an implementation. I worked on something similar over the Summer. It’s just relational algebra with pipes for composition. If you are interested, we could get an antlr grammar going and plug it into this basic execution engine to get a feel for the language.

Show HN: PRQL – A Proposal for a Better SQL
I'm really excited about languages that build on or are compiled to SQL, in the long-term (because I think it will take a very long time to build adoption).
The ones that particularly excite me are shorthands for SQL, even though their heavy use of symbols may be a detriment. One particular use case is in easily defining authorization policies.
I am not very excited by datalog/prolog-based languages because I think logic languages are too unnatural to ever go mainstream. But I'd be excited to be wrong or for logic languages to become more friendly.
Here are some others I'm watching.

We Turn Authorization Logic into SQL
Are there any policy-language-libraries-backed-by-sql like Polar but that aren't based on logic programming languages? I don't really want to learn logic programming for this purpose nor do I want to require it on my coworkers.
I guess I'm just looking for a SQL shorthand that can easily interpolate request variables and session variables but that gets declared in code where a route is declared. Just spitballing but something like `(blogs.id = $req.blogid).userid = $session.userid OR (users.id = $session.userid).isAdmin`.
This [0] is close but it doesn't have enough momentum to be usable in every language you'd want.
