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.

The Usability of Advanced Type Systems: Rust as a Case Study
> fully dynamic
Well, no, it's SBCL. Common Lisp has support for types, but most compilers only use them for optimization, SBCL goes one step further and emits warnings when you mismatch types. And looking at the code, I can see lots of type declarations.
It's also interesting to note that the code does not seem to be using SBCL's new SIMD library*, so it could be sped up even more.
* <https://github.com/marcoheisig/sb-simd>, see the texinfo file for documentation.

Implementation comparison
I suppose that using arrays + using SIMD instructions could be even faster. Someone is already doing that: https://github.com/marcoheisig/sb-simd/blob/master/examples/simd-dot.lisp .

Which programming language or compiler is faster
Common Lisp (sbcl) performance via native implementation of simd [0] is very impressive ! It is litteraly acheieving C/Cpp speeds (within few ms). Great work by Marco Heisig

sb-simd vectorization speed
Here is another demonstration of how effective SIMD vectorization can be using sb-simd.
-
Quite amazing SBCL benchmark speed with sb-simd vectorization
You can see on Programming Language and Compiler Benchmark site the amazing speed of SBCL when sb-simd is used for vectorization.
-
How to speed up array writes?
For SBCL-specific, Marco and Bela have put in a ton of work at sb-simd - may be the OP finds the relevant simd interface there!
-
Programming Language and compiler Benchmarks
And sb-simd is getting very-very impressive to say the least thanks to Marco Heisig.

Best Lisp(s) for Functional & (seperately) Systems programming?
You can use sb-simd for manual vectorisation with SBCL. Manual vectorisation is definitely more hassle than automatic vectorisation, but often worth it.
-
Common Lisp (SBCL) slower than Python 3.9?
Fully agreed. One more library that could open up areas is also coming soon. Though documentation is still to be written. Please check sb-simd I wish I could have supported Marco even more.

Gamedev in Lisp. Part 1: ECS and Metalinguistic Abstraction
A recent, notable game made in Lisp is Kandria: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1261430/Kandria/ / https://github.com/Shirakumo/kandria

We need to talk about parentheses
Examples (for Common Lisp, so not citing Emacs): reddit v1, Google's ITA Software that powers airfare search engines (Kayak, Orbitz…), Postgres' pgloader (http://pgloader.io/), which was re-written from Python to Common Lisp, Opus Modus for music composition, the Maxima CAS, PTC 3D designer CAD software (used by big brands worldwide), Grammarly, Mirai, the 3D editor that designed Gollum's face, the ScoreCloud app that lets you whistle or play an instrument and get the music score,
but also the ACL2 theorem prover, used in the industry since the 90s, NASA's PVS provers and SPIKE scheduler used for Hubble and JWT, many companies in Quantum Computing, companies like SISCOG, who plans the transportation systems of european metropolis' underground since the 80s, Ravenpack who's into big-data analysis for financial services (they might be hiring), Keepit (https://www.keepit.com/), Pocket Change (Japan, https://www.pocket-change.jp/en/), the new Feetr in trading (https://feetr.io/, you can search HN), Airbus, Alstom, Planisware (https://planisware.com),
or also the open-source screenshotbot (https://screenshotbot.io), the Kandria game (https://kandria.com/),
and the companies in https://github.com/azzamsa/awesome-lisp-companies and on LispWorks and Allegro's Success Stories.

Factorio: Space Age
> The source is not publicly available, no. It‘s still being actively developed and sold after all.
Those two are definitely not incompatible. Take Karia[0] for example, which is fully Free Software[1].

The battlebit discord anticheat “helpers” everybody.
I’ve seen a 1 person team support steam deck controls with a game written in lisp kandria. The battlebit devs have much better tools supporting steam deck using the unity engine. The controls for the steam deck is definitely not the main reason to abandon Linux, the anti cheat stuff seams to be the only thing in the way.

best lisp or scheme for web game dev?
I don't know about "best", but the work that the Kandria dev has put into CL libraries to create his game has been impressive to see.
- Owner of Symbolics Lisp machines IP is interested in a non-commercial release
- Steel Bank Common Lisp 2.3.5 released

Looking for multi-paradigm languages that have reliable tail-call optimization
For what it's worth, I'd take a look at Common Lisp. It's perhaps less functionally-minded than OCaml, but I don't think it's fair to call it imperative. You'll encounter similar-looking patterns. There aren't loads of games for CL, but I've heard Kandria is super (https://github.com/Shirakumo/kandria), as well as being a great example project.
