Star history

Weekly, from GitHub's stargazers history, over a 30-day window.

Star history

Loading star history…

Growth

Star growth per time window: stars gained, growth percentage, the star count at the start of the period, and whether the figure was measured from our own two-hour intraday snapshots, daily snapshots, or GitHub’s rebuilt star history, for the last 6 hours, the last 12 hours, today, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, and the last year. A period with no current measurement is left blank rather than shown as zero.
Period	Stars gained	Growth	From	Measured
Last 6 hours	—	—	—	Not measured
Last 12 hours	—	—	—	Not measured
Today	+3	0.0%	6.7k on 25 Oct 2026	Daily snapshots
Last 7 days	—	—	—	Last measured 25 Oct 2026
Last 30 days	+23	0.3%	6.7k on 27 Sep 2026	Weekly history
Last year	+567	9.3%	6.1k on 26 Oct 2025	Weekly history

A period with no current measurement is left blank: a delta needs a measurement at both ends of the period. The 6- and 12-hour periods need two intraday measurements exactly that far apart, the day-and-longer periods need snapshots on both dates, and the last year also needs star history from a year ago, which we keep for one year.

How we measure this

30 Sep 2026Entered our index· 62 days later

Stars: 6.7k when it entered our index, 6.7k on the last capture we hold (26 Oct 2026), so +12 in that span. That span is our own measurement window, not a claim about what happened before it.

It has never shown up on GitHub Trending while we were watching, so there is no arrival to compare against.

We hold 14 mentions for it, the oldest dated 25 Aug 2017 and the first written into our database on 17 Oct 2026. Thread dates come from the source, not from when we fetched them.

What the web says

14 items so far: 14 on Hacker News, 0 on Reddit; 0 in the last 7 days, 0 in the last 30. Checked by the pipeline, which re-scans trending repositories every few hours. Last check 1 week ago.

DuckDB 1.1.0 ReleasedHNcomment · by exergy · 9 Sep 2024
there is Ibis[0] as a fairly mature package. They recently adopted duckdb as the default execution engine and it can give you a nice python dataframe API ontop of duckdb, with hot-swappability towards heavier engines. With tools like this providing a comprehensive python API and the ability to always fall back to raw SQL, i am not sure DuckDB devs should focus on the python API at all beyond basi…
Farewell Pandas, and thanks for all the fishHNcomment · by cpcloud · 29 Aug 2024
`_` definitely clashes with IPython and Jupyter's use of it. However, if you import it from Ibis then it ceases to be used as "most recent result" and remains the ibis underscore object (unless of course you explicitly assign it to something else). Regarding backend compatibility, there are definitely a few kinds of things that we don't currently abstract over. One is regular expression syntax an…
