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.

Our Roadmap for Nix
I have spent a little bit of time working on a prototype of a setup like this, and have needed to write a lot of (hacky) glue and BUILD files.
I take it you have departed quite a bit from https://github.com/tweag/rules_nixpkgs ? Are you generating BUILD.bazel files for nixpkgs, or are you doing that by hand?

nix-shell, but make it lovely
I'm a fan of Tweag's rules_nixpkgs for bazel: https://github.com/tweag/rules_nixpkgs

Bazel 5.0 LTS with the new external dependency subsystem "Bzlmod"
Check out rules_nixpkgs as another way to get hermetic python. It does require that you install Nix, but everything else is driven from the Bazel side. Works for us on Linux and macos.

We Went All in on Sqlc/Pgx for Postgres and Go
Cool, thanks for the link.
For what it's worth, we use rules_nixpkgs to source Postgres (for Linux and Darwin) as well as things such as C and Python toolchains, and it's been working really well. It does require that the machine have Nix installed, though, but that opens up access to Nix's wide array of prebuilt packages.

Show HN: My Go SQLite driver did poorly on a benchmark, so I fixed it
> I would've probably picked the modernc variation
Heads up about the modernc library, it has been stuck on an old version of sqlite for several months [1]. It seems like maintainer time is the limiting factor [2]. There has been a call to arms on that issue page, the maintainer is looking for help, but it looks like not much has arrived. It seems like it might trace back to blockers in the C-to-Go compiler.
It's a major undertaking and a very impressive piece of work, but I'm not surprised it's a struggle when big roadblocks get hit. I hope they find a way to progress, but I'm very relieved to be seeing some CGo-free alternatives like ncruces/go-sqlite3 emerging. I'm going to give it a try for sure and see if I can live with the compromises.
Squinn-go looks very compelling too, but I don't like that it requires the squinn binary to already be installed on a user's machine, I think that gives with one hand and takes with the other: sure, I get to avoid CGo, but I also lose the turnkey, single-command install, static build benefits Go brings out of the box.
Seconding the point about nitty gritty, I'd read it for sure too!

Show HN: Sqinn-Go is a Golang library for accessing SQLite databases in pure Go
No, but that has the disadvantage of being C compiled into Go, then being compiled into native executable.
I'm actually surprised by how readable this came out; props to the Go->C compiler author. But you can guess that pushing this sort of thing through the Go compiler is going to cause some slowdowns due to sheer paradigm mismatch: https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite/-/blob/master/lib/sqlite_lin...

FWIW, we use a version of SQLite transpiled into Go to avoid CGI problems: https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite

Go port of SQLite without CGo
It could be clearer in the readme, but note that this is a machine translation from C to Go, repeated for every OS-Arch pair. Example of the one you're most likely to use in production: https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite/-/blob/master/lib/sqlite_linux_amd64.go
