MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor and Writing History July 10, 1925: The Scopes "Monkey Trial" Trial began in Dayton, Tennessee. John T. Scopes was a high school science teacher accused of violating the Butler Act, which made it unlawful to teach human evolution in any state-funded school. Scopes was found guilty and fined $100, but the verdict was overturned on a technicality. Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee wrote about it in their play “Inherit the Wind” (1955). However, they said that their play was a response to the McCarthy anticommunist witch hunt and a statement in support of free speech. Ronald Kidd's 2006 novel, “Monkey Town: The Summer of the Scopes Trial,” was also based on the Scopes Trial. Scopes was defended by labor Clarence Darrow, who had defended Eugene Debs, during the Pullman strike (1893); and Big Bill Haywood against false murder charges (1905); and the McNamara brothers for the false charges in the L.A. Times bombing (1910).<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/evolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#evolution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#education</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#teaching</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#science</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/clarencedarrow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#clarencedarrow</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/freespeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#freespeech</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#censorship</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/playwright" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#playwright</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/theater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#theater</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/historicalfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#historicalfiction</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mccarthy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mccarthy</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#communism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#novel</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@bookstadon</a>

Leonard Rittertbh it's slightly more than that<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/noir" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#noir</a>

Leonard Ritternoticed on ubuntu 24.04 that libtinfo5 is no longer a package (you have to manually install a dpkg), but the LLVM 13 binary distro that we still use in scopes depends on it, so i took that as a sign that our dependency is rapidly getting very very old.therefore, i finally ported our <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> backend from LLVM 13 to LLVM 17, and even though they completely removed typed pointers, the port only ended up taking me 3 hours (but I felt *very* lost in the beginning).

Leonard Ritterthe f"..." string formatting prefix in <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a>none of these do produce any intermediate string objects. it's all streamed.i wonder how far i can drive this. like, could we fit an entire ascii flex layouter in there? ;-)

Leonard Ritterthinking about a short hand for the `mutable` qualifier in <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a>. the shortest synonym of mutable is "fluid", and "~" is an associated iconographic character. which readily makes this operation available:

Leonard Rittersome nice operations that can be performed on the exp2-heap i'm working on. efficiently base any pointer, find its size, offset it safely. the pointers require no extra tags and can be passed to C as-is. (in fact, when overriding the system malloc, all C libraries will produce these pointers) as an important bonus, there's an extra bitmap segment that runs parallel to the pool at ratio 1:64 which is used to mark memory locations that are themselves addresses.<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a>²

Leonard Ritteradded three new features to <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> core: 1. the parser recognizes and expands prefixed symbolic literals 2. the `c` string literal prefix now also supports symbols 3. the `c` prefix expands multi-character sequences up to 8 bytes (in LE) for easier definition of RIFF codes

Leonard Ritter(i wrote this in our discord) like rust, <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> defines itself as a systems programming language, it just feels more entitled to unconstrained expression; systems programmers are far too ready to stunt their vocabulary and lock their jail cell from the inside, but then complain about feeling burned out later. i have been there in my 30s, and so i see that as flagrant disregard for one's needs. program performance is no altar at which to sacrifice your ability to concisely express your ideas.

Leonard Ritteralright. i built a simple toy serializer for <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> that just uses the existing print module to dump serialized values to the console.already it can do many of the standard types, and even handle shared references.but i will have to write a default binary serializer/deserializer next to know if the interface makes sense.

Leonard Ritterrewrote the <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/scopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scopes</a> tokenizer in scopes as a collector. now it's possible to color-code scopes sources when streaming them from a file to the terminal.
