just need to make a color picker widget as part of my webgpu lyapunov fractal renderer i need for my blog post about lyapunov fractals so that my portfolio site has an explanation of the mathematical content of my renders so i can get that and my resume nice and polished and start applying for jobs

struct Uniforms /* buffer 0 0 */ { width: u32, height: u32, center: vec2f, zoom: f32, nan_color: vec3f, x_0: f32, // 0 to 1 = 0.5 iterations: u32, // hard 0 to 500 = 100 seq_mask: u32, // hard 0 to 65536 = 5 seq_len: u32, // hard 1 to 30 = 2 do_discont: u32, // hard 0 to 1 = 0 $bool discont_alpha: f32, // 0 to 1 = 0.907 $depend(do_discont) do_tent: u32, // hard 0 to 1 = 0 do_neg: u32, // hard 0 to 1 = 0 do_stochasticity: u32, // hard 0 to 1 = 0 stochastic_modulus: u32, // 1 to 200 = 100 rotation: f32, // 0 to 1 = 0 pow_r: f32, // 0 to 3 = 1 pow_g: f32, // 0 to 3 = 1 pow_b: f32 // 0 to 3 = 1 }

(for parameter annotations)

horrendously long regex

if only there was a better way. alas

lyapunov fractal

rotation is a go. we have rotation

lyapunov fractal but it's rotated

gotta love webgpu error messages. "Expression [26] is invalid = Composing 0's component type is not expected" thanks guess i'll die

company i work at is finally rolling out ai access to developers lmao

llm release cycles are getting kinda obnoxious tho tbh

personal feelings of connection & profundity don't change what christianity is and has been throughout its history. find meaning in something that doesn't suck
