Nowadays I'm mostly using duckdb/chdb to process/transform data. I use polars mainly to view results output by duckdb/chdb. I like polars and I always use it over pandas but I must say that pandas slicing is certainly missed (or just ability to utilize slicing, not necessarily like pandas)

Are you thinks about something else or is this what you want to do in polars?:

That just slices rows but something like df[cols] for example would be nice (and is more intuitive), the __slice__ api in python is quiet powerful and I wish polars would take more advantage of it

I haven't heard of chdb. Thanks for sharing it.
