I wonder how the current Epic Games v. Google court case factors in the new sideloading policies Google is signaling intent to enforce.
Requiring all Android developers to go through them, including paying a fee, sure sounds like something that fails to comply with this:
> the app-store-distribution remedy forbids Google from banning "third-party Android app distribution platforms or stores through the Google Play Store,” so that the same platforms can access Android smartphone users who are currently accustomed to downloading all their apps through the Play Store.
I suppose you could argue e.g. F-Droid is not itself available in the Play Store, but the news around sideloading sure seem like Google creating another way to circumvent the court decision's intention to, as it continues, "allow other app stores to compete in this two-sided market by letting them offer the apps and reach the users on the Play Store platform".
With the latest news[1], Google's next move should be appealing to the Supreme Court, and given its latest decisions I am not optimistic about that.

@benjistokman @hipsterelectron what happens if you give it a regular color photo and tell it the color count is 32?

Ooh, Slint can have almost automatic native look and feel via a build time option and light/dark modes (if you do things right in terms of styling custom components, which I mostly did not, but I can fix it pretty easily). Cupertino (Apple) style doesn't work for some reason...text is invisible. But, I don't have a Mac to build on, anyway, so that's a problem for another day.

@benjistokman @hipsterelectron holy smokes this looks great :O

@benjistokman @hipsterelectron I'm guessing you most likely want a perceptual color space like oklab or cielab.
The math involved is very fiddly and easy to get wrong, but the CSS spec has useful reference examples https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-4/#color-conversion-code
You can also copy my notes https://github.com/Aeva/mollytime/blob/f4fe01f4ca979a0d24a3e7a11f6a5b4049cb3ea3/src/colors.cpp#L349 (my re-implementation of the math outlined in the above CSS spec)

Sbriciolata, giornata intensissima, e grata di tutto. Ora sono troppo stanca ma domani voglio prendermi un po' di tempo per scrivere Happy🦋
Intanto un pensiero lo lascio anche qui: grata del freddo sul naso e di poter rientrare in una casa calda che mi concede il lusso di apprezzare l'inverno.

@stefano Sure.
I was just lamenting on myself, I was almost going to get that fun contract with clear agreements, aced the interviews and then lost of signal, later I learned they closed the role.I wonder if we shouldn't at least charge for this, cause it's "work" and lack of respect at the same time.

@omar it's not always that way for me, too. This week I had to do lots of things I dislike. But, luckily, not today

@stefano Don't throw curse on yourself.
You are the Ying, i'm the Yang, I get only shitty assignment despite having been hired or contracted for the "fun" part but i'm the only one willing to do the hard/grunt work.
