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.

Understanding Rspec Best Practices
Both sites advocate for factories over fixtures (though there is a not clear consensus). With fixtures, test objects are all defined in fixture files with predefined data. Fixtures can be used across tests but modifying an existing fixture can break tests that depend on that fixture. As a codebase grows managing fixtures for all the various states of your object can be difficult. In comparison, factories let you build and configure new objects per test.

The Loudest Lisp Program
Have you seen https://stevelosh.com/blog/2018/08/a-road-to-common-lisp/ ? "Kludges" everywhere is applicable. On the other hand, having a function like "row-major-aref" that allows accessing any multi-dimensional array as if it were one dimensional is "sweeter than the honeycomb".
I still think CL code can be beautiful. Norvig's in PAIP https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp is nice.
As for the inside-out remark, while technically you do it, you don't have to, and it's very convenient to not do. Clojure has its semi-famous arrow macro that lets you write things in a more sequential style, it exists in CL too, and there's always the venerable let* binding. e.g. 3 options:
(loop (print (eval (read))))

The Meeting of the Minds That Launched AI
Emacs is so much more than a text editor! But I need to stay on topic...
I believe your assessment of LISP (and therefore of MacArthy)'s impact on AI to be unfair. Just a few days ago https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp was discussed on this site, for example.

Towards a New SymPy
Sounds like a great project idea to make a toy demo of this direction you'd like to see. Maybe comparable to https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp/blob/main/docs/chapter15... and https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp/blob/main/docs/chapter8.... which are a few hundred lines of Lisp each, but do enough to be interesting.

A few newbie questions about lisp
You could look into Paradigms of AI Programming by Peter Norvig which might interest you regardless of Lisp content.

Mathematical paradigm?
Lisp has great power, examine PAIP, part II chapters 7 and 8.

Evidence that GPT-4 has a level of understanding
A computer running Prolog reasons, and that only requires a couple of pages of code. So it seems feasible that the network could have learned some ability to reason within its network.

Conversation with Larry Masinter about Standardizing Common Lisp
IMHO it's because lisp shines to manipulate symbols whereas the current AI trend is crunching matrices.
When AI was about building grammars, trees, developing expert systems builds rules etc. symbol manipulation was king. Look at PAIP for some examples: https://github.com/norvig/paip-lisp
This paradigm has changed.
