Chris Kohlhepp's personal blog at chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com covers programming and economics. Since 2014, 22 different Hacker News readers have linked it 30 times, most often “The Convergence of Modern C++ on the Lisp Programming Style”. The last post was in 2017, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (7) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this blog for posts on Lisp and Common Lisp, including a compiler-setup post with GADTs and exhaustive pattern matching, a Prolog-based cryptanalysis series, and running Emacs on iOS.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 7 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?
I don't own any ios device and support for it isn't merged in the repository yet. There are a few git repositories (a bit dated though), regarding building ECL with iPhone[1], and there is a project by Kris Kohlhepp[2] – I've wrote to him recently with the question about patches. If anyone has iOS and will submit a proper PR with some notes about building I'll gladly accept it :-) [1] https://github.com/search?utf8=…

HN discussionThis article covers setting up Common Lisp with GADTs and exhaustive pattern-matching checks. https://chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com/metacircular-adventures-... > We note that we get a non-exhaustive match warning at compile time, not run time. This is the behaviour we would expect for example from OCaml. Indeed, in our little game we might change the simple use of keyword symbols to algebraic data types and thus add c…

HN discussion> Unfortunately, LISP doesn't quite match [the Von Neumann] architecture, so it has traditionally performed poorly compared to C. Exactly. It has traditionally performed poorly compared to C, but this hasn't been the case for a lot of time. There's a number of misconceptions about what is and what is not a lisp. First of all, a lisp doesn't have to be interpreted or run in a virtual machine. While this is true for a…

HN discussionAuthor here again: and thank you Tom for your feedback. I'm not the author of Screamer so am not going to defend it's runtime properties. These were not of interest to me and yes I could recode much of what I did in C++ which I am more familiar with than Prolog. I work in low latency trading, so I am happy to take any challenge from Prolog in C++. Bummer would be that I could not publish my solution. The reason Scre…

HN discussionI was poking around for a GitHub page, a mail address, or a comment feature, but gave up more quickly than you did :-) In the end I now left a comment at the overview post for this series of blog posts at https://chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com/2016/12/06/cryptanalysis... because comments seem to be disabled on the featured post itself.

HN discussionyou can get even more 'real' and run it natively if you compile it for yourself on a jailbroken device. I'm working on this for arm64 (newer devices) and someone accomplished it ~5 years ago: https://chriskohlhepp.wordpress.com/linux-on-iphone/emacs-oc...
