it's a wonderful lack of self-awareness here from Apple's developer email - titled "Let's talk Liquid Glass" - that in the hero image they use right at the start you have to really squint to make out the clock/time. a new era of "clarity" indeed. fucking clowns.

screenshot of the start of the developer email from apple. at the top, a large hero image - looking straight down at a wooden table, with people sitting at both sides. on the table, a large pretend screen, with mockups of a simple app interface - an abstract blue background, some semi-transparent buttons, and prominently in the center a large digital clock display that is just barely visible-legible as it's 90%+ transparent. on the table are actual glass recreations of icons and other UI elements, like these people are building/prototyping a liquid glass interface physically on top of this pretend screen. Text underneath the hero image reads:

MEET WITH APPLE
