Sadly, it happens more often than you would think. I would suggest keeping your hopes up for other companies that you can apply to, taking whatever learnings you can from this process, and move on.
Definitely ask for feedback from the previous company. Most companies provide feedback as to what went wrong.

Thanks for asking this question :)
Couple of them for me
1. Professionally: Moving to an awesome core tech team (chance to work with internals of a database)
2. Personally: Wrote a blog post which received very high attention here on HN... shameless plug (sorry):

3. Health wise: Successfully used internmittent fasting to lose 8KG, and then maintain it for 9 months straight.
4. Finally, if all goes well, a baby on the way in our family!

Yup. That was my inspiration, and sadly, I have been on the side as well where things started from scratch, and ended up blowing up couple of months later.

`jq` is great. Initially, I started with excel, which I exported as csv, which using `jq` I converted to JSON.
Why json and not csv? Strictier parsing by javascript.
