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.

What is the point of the if __name__ == "__main__":, i.e. why use a file as both script and module?
The Lissp transpiler incrementally compiles and executes each top-level form to Python. It needs to do this in case there's a macro definition that might affect the compilation of a subsequent form. If it's only executing definitions, this is harmless, but if you want to precompile the main module, it needs the guard, or the side effects will happen too.

What's the most hilarious use of operator overloading you've seen?
If you want Python to be as customizable as Lissp, check out Hissp (and Hebigo).

Want cleaner code? Use the rule of six
Python's lambdas can have as many lines as you want. Just wrap parens around it. Hissp uses this form as a compilation target. Its REPL shows the Python compilation. Play around with it til you get it: https://github.com/gilch/hissp

Is ECMAScript really a dialect of Lisp?
The original Lisp's S-expression syntax was just supposed to be an intermediate language used by the compiler when processing the real language based on M-expressions, which kind of never took off. Numerous alternatives to S-expressions have been proposed, and some retain homoiconicity, another feature diagnostic of a Lisp (and one that ECMAScript lacks). For example, see Hebigo's readme, which shows a direct correspondence between its Python-like syntax and that of Hissp's default reader (Lissp), which uses the S-expressions. Julia can also be written in S-expressions, but this usually only used in macro definitions.

Land of Lisp
I think LoL is too CL-specific. If you know both languages first, you can pretty much translate, but since they'd be trying to learn Lisp in the first place, this is a bad idea.
On the other hand, [Hissp][1] has a pretty good tutorial for anyone coming from a Python background.

Interesting or distinctive lisps?
Hebigo: a whitespaceLisp isomorphic to Hissp that looks like Python.

Go superset
gomacro added macros and generics several years before generics reached release.

Alternative REPL to "gore"
I use https://github.com/cosmos72/gomacro when I want to quickly try some code.

".. beat the Crap out of ..", really liked that wording. You can't trump that.
Officially, it's not much scripting friendly, but there are unofficial support to make it a proper scripting option like the gomacro.

How to run a go main package from another go program?
If it's a simple program I guess you could use gomacro:https://github.com/cosmos72/gomacro

go-notebook
Thanks to gomacro we can import no standard libraries on the notebook :P

DoorDash: Migrating From Python to Kotlin for Our Backend Services
For our use (debugging and running small scripts to update data), gomacro should work well enough, despite being an "almost complete" Go interpreter. This isn't the same as the Python REPL which uses entirely the same code to run, but it should be up to the task.
