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.

Using migrations with Golang
Go does not natively support the use of migrations, but we could use the ORM that has this functionality, such as GORM which is the most used by the community, but We can use migrations without using an ORM, for this we will use the golang-migrate package.

Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go
Golang-migrate is a database migration tool designed for Go applications. It helps manage and apply changes to the database schema as the application grows, ensuring that the code and database structure stay in sync.

Python: Just Write SQL
First of all, thank you for SQLAlchemy! If I ever had to make a final choice in how I would interact with a database for a very large project that involves a considerable dev team, I would always bet on SQLAlchemy. Not that I would necessarily like all aspects of it, but when it comes to Python and SQL - “Nobody ever got fired for picking SQLAlchemy.”.
With that out of the way, despite ORMs doing much more than "just writing SQL", it is exactly on that point that I flinch: Most devs should be exposed to SQL. And if your project allows you to build around simple enough abstractions so that you aren't reinventing the wheel, you should definitely be writing SQL. Especially if you don't know SQL yet - which is the growing case of new devs coming into the job market.
You can achieve a lot with SQlAlchemy Core, a tool that I absolutely recommend, but my post is just a simple alternative to get developers to think about their approach. If that results in some devs reconsidering using "full fat" SQLAlchemy and to try SQLAlchemy Core, that's a win for me!
Your gist tries to highlight the difficulty of doing certain things without an ORM. Migrations (as just 1 example) doesn't need to be hard, simple tools like flyway, or migrate (https://github.com/golang-migrate/migrate) achieve a similar result (while also keeping you on the path of writing SQL!). Deep and complex relationships between objects also don't need to be hard - typically people approach this subject with a requirement to be very flexible in the way they want to build queries and objects, but that to me in a sign that maybe they should reconsider their business logic AND reconsider that, just maybe, their project doesn't require all that flexibility, it is fairly straightforward to extend objects and introduce some more complex representations as and when it is needed - will all of this make me write code faster? Absolutely not. That is why you have spent so much time perfecting SQLAlchemy, but then again, I am not advocating for devs to go and replace their usage of ORMs, just presenting an alternative that may or may not fit their needs for a new project + give devs the chance to learn something that the ORM might have taken away.

best practices for testing of stored procedure calls?
Doing this now with a mysql db for my use case. Using sp to take a large chunk of data migration load off my data layer code. I am using migrate (go library) for migrations and hooked it up with a bunch of test suites for all SP and Triggers it creates. I test it against a testDB maintained as part of my CI/CD. Haven’t had an issue with production yet. It does however require quite a bit of initial setup.

REST API with Go, Chi, MySQL and sqlx
Before we can start using MySQL we need to create a table to store our data. I will be using excellent migrate database migrations tool, it can also be imported as a libraray.

We need a database table to store our application's users' data. To generate and migrate a schema, we'll use golang migrate. Kindly follow these instructions to install it on your Operating system. To create a pair of migration files (up and down) for our user table, issue the following command in your terminal and at the root of your project:

Setting up a Database Driver, Repository and Implementation of a transaction function for your Go App
Sometimes, backend developers tend to opt for an ORM library because it provides an abstraction between your app and the database and thus there is little or no need to write raw queries and migrations which is nice. However, if you want to get better at writing queries (SQL for example), you need to learn how to build your repositories without an ORM. To open a database handle, you can either do it directly from the database driver or do it from database/sql with the driver passed into it. I will be opening the connection with database/sql together with pgx which is a driver and toolkit for PostgreSQL. Walk with me.

The DDD Hamburger for Go
The infrastructure layer contains the concrete implementation of the repository domain interface ActivityRepository in the struct DbActivityRepository. This repository implementation uses the Postgres driver pgx and plain SQL to store the activity in the database. It uses the database transaction from the context, since the transaction was initiated by the application service.

Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go
For building the RESTful Point of Sale service API, I've considered and selected a combination of technologies that would work seamlessly together. For handling HTTP requests and responses, using the Gin HTTP web framework would make sense because I think it seems complete and popular among Go community too. To ensure data integrity and persistence, I'm using PostgreSQL database with pgx as the database driver, the reason I choose PostgreSQL because it is the most popular relational database to use in production and offers efficient Go integration. I'm also implementing caching using Redis with go-redis client library, which provides powerful in-memory data storage capabilities.

Working with postgres in GO.
If you are willing to commit to working only with Postgres, I highly recommend pgx. Be sure you get the latest version github.com/jackc/pgx/v5. This gives you the full power of interacting with Postgres without going through an intermediate lowest-common-denominator library.

Could I get a code review?
Starting off, is there any reason you're calling out to the CLI, instead of just using a Postgres driver like pgx? Shelling out to the command line should always be a last resort where possible as a software engineer.

Why elixir over Golang
For maintaining state I use PostgreSQL. Driver: https://github.com/jackc/pgx (I use the pgxpools) Along with Sqlc for generating database models and allowing me to focus on just building queries in DBeaver. https://sqlc.dev/

Zig now has built-in HTTP server and client in std
Except pgx recommends using their native interface, not database/sql, for performance and extra features [0], so it's not that simple in practice.
