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.

Evidence – Business Intelligence as Code
We have support for duckdb (and CSVs and Parquet through duckdb). We don't support python, but some people have also told us they have used evidence as the front-end for a python project - used python to do data transformation and calculations, then dumped the results into a duckdb file in an evidence project and built the visuals and narrative in evidence.
"Containerized" approaches with evidence are also quite interesting - lets you combine several tools and use evidence as the last mile. Here's a great example: https://github.com/matsonj/nba-monte-carlo

Planner programming blows my mind
Pleasantly surprised to see Predrag show up as a reviewer, but at the same time not at all surprised:
- The [Firebase technical screen](https://startupandrew.com/posts/how-firebase-interviewed-sof...) would have been much easier with something like this, as it was Just Another Optimization Problem™. Part of me wants to try it again with Picat!
- He's doing other very interesting things with programming languages, e.g.: https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall

Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (December 2023)
Email: [email protected]
Hi, I'm u9g. I'm looking for an internship for either this winter (in a few weeks) or a summer internship!
Some things I've done:
I integrated a [query engine for lints](https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall) (and contributed optimizations) into [OXC](https://github.com/oxc-project/oxc) (a new Rust-based Javascript Linter).
I wrote [several](https://github.com/u9g/money-lens) [toy](https://github.com/u9g/quickquestion/tree/main/extension) languages and syntax highlighting for them.
I also wrote a [js-to-scheme transpiler](https://github.com/u9g/js2scheme/blob/main/example.js).
Happy to work on things compiler or database oriented, but also happy to learn something new!

Semver violations are common, better tooling is the answer
If you'd like to dig deeper, here are some links:
- cargo-semver-checks: https://github.com/obi1kenobi/cargo-semver-checks
- Trustfall query engine, which powers cargo-semver-checks: https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall
- Trustfall playground, where you can query Rust library APIs in your browser -- for example, "which structs in `itertools` are importable by more than one path": https://play.predr.ag/rustdoc#?f=2&q=*3-Structs-importable-f...
- 10min conference talk on Trustfall: https://www.hytradboi.com/2022/how-to-query-almost-everythin...
I'm also giving a talk at P99 CONF in a few months about how Trustfall's new optimizations API made cargo-semver-checks over 2300x faster: https://twitter.com/PredragGruevski/status/16893002495908003...

Cargo-semver-checks: Scan your Rust crate for semver violations
No worries!
Trustfall is even more general than semver actually, one can use it to query any data source -- even HN itself:
https://play.predr.ag/HackerNews
Here's a link to that project if you'd like to check it out:
https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall
I gave a 10min conference talk on it last year titled "How to query (almost) everything"

We created Taxi, and why we felt the need for Another Schema Language
I've had my eye on Taxi for a while, and it's neat! I agree that the problems it aims to solve are real and painful in real life.
In my experience, I'm not sure people care about schemas or schema languages — they are just implementation details best left under the hood. This is why in my own work, I started on the query end of the spectrum instead.
This is why I built Trustfall, a query engine able to query any data source: DBs, APIs, files like PDF, CSV, or JSON, or any combination of those.

Speeding up Rust semver-checking by over 2000x
Here's an example adapter for querying RSS/Atom feeds. Here's an example adapter for querying the HackerNews APIs. Both projects also include a schema and example queries which you can run.
