Not sure if you're in on the joke, but for those who didn't go to the repo itself:

https://github.com/golang-jvm/golang-jvm

It's just a copy-paste of JRuby on April 1st and the readme now includes a rickroll.

Maybe it's irresponsible of them to leave it up in a way that Google still finds as a legitimate-looking search result.

LOL, I was not aware and stepped right into that.

There appear to be other attempts: for example https://github.com/zxh0/jvm.go (might be the same?)

Let's just say people have tried/joked about it but it never took off.

Its other way round. Implementing JVM in Go and not running Go over JVM.
