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.

New Lisp-Stat Release
Reminds me that there was an attempt to realize the "Back to the Future" vision in Clojure.
https://github.com/incanter/incanter
It never took off but looks like there was modifications made up until three years ago.

What tutorial will teach you to do what they do over on /r/dataisbeautiful
Most languages have some sort of graphics library, so that can be used. When I did my project that lead to my single post on r/dataisbeautiful, I used the Clojure library Incater to do the heatmap. The matplotlib library for Python allows stuff like that as well.

Replace Python @ Work w/ Scheme
Clojure has Incanter for the data-science stuff.

SciCloj - How to build a Clojure Data Science Community
Is there a modern beginner guide for data sciences with Clojure? The best I found so far is the book "Clojure for Data Science" by Henry Garner which is fine but uses Incanter for visualization.

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.
