This was quite hard to build😅 But I was able to finish it today! You can now generate both a primary and a secondary color scale simultaneously 🚀 Lock one of the color scales and hit spacebar to find nice combinations. Give it a try uicolors.app

RELEASE DAY After almost 10 years of hard work, tireless research, and a dive deep into the kernels of computer science, I finally realized a dream: running a high-level language on GPUs. And I'm giving it to the world! Bend compiles modern programming features, including: - Lambdas with full closure support - Unrestricted recursion and loops - Fast object allocations of all kinds - Folds, ADTs, continuations and much more To HVM2, a new runtime capable of spreading that workload across 1000's of cores, in a thread-safe, low-overhead fashion. As a result, we finally have a true high-level language that runs natively on GPUs! Here's a quick demo:

SaaS as we know it is dying and no-one is talking about it 1 hour ago, Zapier ($5B company) started charging "pay-per-task" instead of only monthly subscriptions When you can align customer incentives with your business model, it's a beautiful thing Bullish.
