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.

Zq: An Easier (and Faster) Alternative to Jq
For me, transforming JSON on the command line was a pain, another DSL to learn. Now, I can just use Babashka/ Clojure + one or two functions from Cheshire https://github.com/dakrone/cheshire where I need to. If I needed a standalone tool, I would perhaps reach for https://github.com/borkdude/jet by the same author, Michiel Borkent, as Babashka or use jq that everybody else would find more familiar.

Super-Structured Data: Rethinking the Schema
Cool, I didn't realize you used sqlite-utils for your performance demo!
It's not particularly designed for speed - it should be fast as far as Python code goes (I use some generator tricks to stream data and avoid having to load everything into memory at once) but I wouldn't expect "sqlite-utils insert" to win any performance competitions with tools written in other languages.
Those benchmarks against sqlite itself are definitely interesting. I'm looking forward to playing with the "native ZNG support for Python" mentioned on https://github.com/brimdata/zed/blob/main/docs/libraries/pyt... when that becomes available.

Zq: An Easier (and Faster) Alternative to Jq
Hi, all. Author here. Thanks for all the great feedback.
I've learned a lot from your comments and pointers.
The Zed project is broader than "a jq alternative" and my bad for trying out this initial positioning. I do know there are a lot of people out there who find jq really confusing, but it's clear if you become an expert, my arguments don't hold water.
We've had great feedback from many of our users who are really productive with the blend of search, analytics, and data discovery in the Zed language, and who find manipulating eclectic data in the ZNG format to be really easy.
Anyway, we'll write more about these other aspects of the Zed project in the coming weeks and months, and in the meantime, if you find any of this intriguing and want to kick the tires, feel free to hop on our slack with questions/feedback or file GitHub issues if you have ideas for improvements or find bugs.
Thanks a million!

The many uses of mock data
In my observation, mock data has tended to be used in a rather loose, slipshod, careless manner. Unlike documentation, it is treated as the garbage of software material. (Sometimes even referred to as "garbage data"). People will try to avoid writing it by using elaborate "generators" such as jFairy or zed.

Internet Object – A JSON alternative data serialization format
There are a few examples in the ZSON spec...
https://github.com/brimdata/zed/blob/main/docs/formats/zson....
And you can easily see whatever data you'd like formatted as ZSON using the "zq" CLI tool, but I just made this gist (with some data from the brimdata/zed-sample-data report) so you can have a quick look (the bstring stuff is a little noisy and an artifact of the data source being Zeek)... https://gist.github.com/mccanne/94865d557ca3de8abfd3eb09e8ac...
What are some alternatives?
