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.

Mariposa – A programming language with time-travel
You don't necessarily need to embed it into the programming language itself to get a ton of value. XTDB (https://github.com/xtdb/xtdb) offer a Clojure, Java and HTTP API for interacting with the database, which is bitemporal and lets you query the database for a specific point in time for example.

I made a basic python client and ORM for XTDB
XTDB is a bitemporal and dynamic relational database for SQL and Datalog, written in Clojure. The Python application I work on uses XTDB for its bitemporal and schema-less nature. There were a few Python clients that looked unmaintained and lacked some features we needed, so I tried to build something that would have fit our own requirements in hindsight. This includes:
-
Endatabas: A SQLite-inspired, SQL document database with full history
it's bitemporal, will be SQL-compatible, and also has another query-language - XTQL :

Is Datomic right for my use case?
You can also consider other durable Datalog options like datahike or datalevin which can work either as lib (SQLite style) or in a client-server setup; if you want to play with bi-temporality XTDB is a rock solid option with very good support and documentation.

Taming the Time: how to install & develop with XTDB
XTDB, or Cross-Time Database, is a distributed and transactional database system designed to handle complex and changing data with ease. It is based on a bitemporal model, which allows for the tracking of both the valid time and transaction time of data, enabling powerful and flexible querying capabilities. With XTDB, developers can work with immutable data structures, which simplifies development and improves reliability. Its graph query language, Datalog, provides a powerful and expressive way to navigate relationships within the data.

How to Write a (Lisp) Interpreter (In Python)
Not exactly the same (doesn't embed into the source like this did), but I believe Hylang[0] is the best Lisp package available for modern Python.

Sapling: A highly experimental vi-inspired editor where you edit code, not text
Isn't that a bit what hy (https://hylang.org/) tries to do ? AIUI it is a lisp interacting directly with the AST of Python, allowing seamless interop: Python modules can be used from hy and vice versa, everything is transparent.

Hissp
I’ve been keeping loose tabs on this and Hy[1] for a while, but I’ve had some trouble figuring out the major differences between them and the use-cases for either. Would love to see an in-depth comparison in the form of a blog post sometime (though maybe the answer here is to do the research and write one up myself).

Ask HN: Is SICP/HtDP still worth reading in 2023? Any alternatives?
“Python is for scientists. Lisp is for engineers.”
Then what does that make Hy language?

Re Languages with lots of example code and LLM’s
With translators or things like Hy lang, one could get the LLM’s to solve your problem in Python before converting it to another form. Then, you just need a translator. If lacking one, it’s easy to translate by hand.
The practicality of this concept will probably vary by use case. My experiments had GPT doing sketching, implementations, boilerplate, and even porting Python to Rust. A legally-clear LLM trained on multiple languages could probably be fine-tuned to do Python to LISP conversions. If not, Hy might be a stepping stone, too.

You could say so: I've been maintaining the compiler since 2016 ;). Infinitesimal Quest 2 + ε (SQ) exists more to advance Hy than for its own sake.
