Interestingly, another current top post on HN is HPAT - A compiler-based framework for big data in Python (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15466829 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15466829). This replaces C level languages with something like Python for a specific domain. That could be somewhere lisp wins as well?
