Quote-Unquote "Macros"
Yep, they are a foreign idea in pretty much all languages, but they are super easy once you figure them out.
If anyone actually wants to get their hands dirty to learn about Lisp macros, I recommend picking a Lisp implementation like SBCL, GNU Guile, Emacs, Clojure, or Hylang depending on what kind of environment you're comfortable with. The key about each of the Lisp implementations I mentioned here is that they all support "Common Lisp style macros", which are the bare bones most obvious way to do macros in Lisp.
Then I recommend using your choice of Lisp to implement a language feature you use in another language. It doesn't matter if that language feature already exists in your choice of Lisp, you can still implement it yourself. For example, you can choose to implement C-style for loops or while loops, asynchronous coroutines like Go, pattern matching, lambdas, whatever. I actually implemented asnyc/await in IronScheme and pushed it upstream[0].
If you want to read more about Lisp macros, I have really enjoyed the book Let over Lambda. I have also heard a lot about On Lisp by pg, but I haven't read that myself yet. Also if you really want to dive off the deep end into the beauty of programming, I recommend SICP.

Async / Await in Scheme
I recently pushed a library to IronScheme to implement anyc / await in a way that I felt was reasonable. Before that, IronScheme had pretty limited support for concurrency, so my goal was to create a library that provided concurrency facilities in a way that would interop nicely with .NET libraries.

Accelerate for Microsoft 365 is a new add-in that integrates the Visual Scheme for Applications programming language. It will also offer Clojure as an alternative.
Apparently this costs $99/yr for a company called Apex Data Solutions to wire the freely available IronScheme into Office 365 via its extension model. See their marketing and shop pages.

PSA: If you update a YML file used in CI to install or use Python 3.10, make sure to use “3.10” as a string. Otherwise is will most likely install Python 3.1.
I love this example: https://github.com/IronScheme/IronScheme/commit/2f847793946935bd9143cdfb064f9006f763df68
