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.

Arena Allocation in SBCL
Based on the commit message [0], and the references to "user code" in this document, my guess is that user programs have or will have access, but it's not finalized enough to be documented.
That being said, I suppose if you're developing an internal API for a compiler/interpreter, your "users" could be other parts of the project rather than language users.

SBCL: merge of mark-region GC
The Immix inspired mark-region GC developed by Hayley Patton (https://github.com/no-defun-allowed/swcl) got merged recently, which is pretty cool news for SBCL users.

A Love Letter to Intellectualism
gnu.org - contains everything you need to research his philosophy.
stallman.org - personal website, contains a lot of opinion, but I absolutely respect this man in all what he says.
emacs.org (redirects to https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/) - his non-philosophical work, one of two mainstream console text editors.

The KGB, the Computer and Me – The Cuckoo's Egg Story [video]
Forever, there was a file included in stock Emacs, `spook.el`, which could be hooked up to automatically add random strings of "interesting" keywords to each of your email or Usenet messages (in signatures, or in headers like `X-Spook`).

Try `M-x spook RET` in an Emacs buffer.

If you want to spare a couple of detours, you probably could start with Emacs Org-mode according to Greenspun's eleventh rule: "Any sufficiently complicated PIM or note-taking program contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Org mode."

Using Common Lisp in Emacs
The whole cl-lib thing is a total disaster:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/emacs...
They added cl- as a prefix to each Common Lisp symbol.
FIRST is now called cl-first, CAAAR is now cl-caaar .
I would really prefer if GNU Emacs removes all Common Lisp functionality, instead of creating this really wacky stuff, with discussions about this topic every year.

GNU Emacs is a versatile, open-source text editor that offers extensibility and customization—a sort of self-documenting real-time display editor. Our thanks for the suggestion go to CartanAnnullator.

Proof of Concept clang plugin that automatically binds C/C++ -> Lua
Their DEFUN and DEFVAR macros for example let us define a function or a variable that will be available as a Lisp function, and can be used as an ordinary C function from the C code. Emacs is written in pure C99 language and works with both GCC and Clang I believe. We can just define a C function via macro, and it is auto exported and made available to Lisp. For example my first patch to Emacs was for this function (we added "count" argument to make it possible to skip enumerating files in a directory for the case when user code is just interesting if a directory is empty or not):
