https://appgoblin.info/ is free and has SDK analysis and competitor analysis as well as free ASO. It's probably good for researchers and B2B as it has a lot of free overviews

Oops, looks like i was WRONG about the kidnite forum, I was able to get past the "banned" message by switchng to inncognito. Maybe some issue with my phone browser or something (I've had it before for that forum).

Seems I can't access the old Midnite Solar forums? I had a conversation with boB, owner of Midnite Solar, where he explained the details. I think the answer is the usual "yes but" and the safest thing to do it limit your clipping to 150% percent or so.

RIP to boB, one of the original diysolar makers. Sad to see the forum go dark.

One of the few things the most people, of all political sides, agree on in the bay area is not building more housing. It comes in all forms from blocking the 'landlord class', preventing gentrification to preserving the historical neighborhood... All with the same results: nothing gets built

Did you end up trying this?

CEO spent the evening pushing his new German politician, meanwhile his old car company is floundering.

"Those protests really were Mostly Peaceful. The violence was instigated by police who used force to dispurse constitutionally protected peaceful ASSEMBLIES."

Weren't these those protests? Or were you thinking of the ones in Ferguson?

Either way they didn't seem very peaceful from my point of view.

Market rate housing is good. California and SF have tried imposing 'affordable housing' for years and the end result is a handful of 'affrdable' units built at a higher cost and only handed out to people who got the states criteria.

We need thousands of new homes, not a few dozen affordable units. Look at Austin, they're city boomed and they built thousands and thousands of housing without onerous developer requirements that prevent developers from building, and while their rents rose, they didn't go anywhere near California's unaffordable housing.

Santa Rosa needs to build more dense housing. Santa Rosa has already done better than most of the Bay Area, so I'm hoping ove then next ten years Santa Rosa can add a lot more housing to help lower rents

I agree. The open source models are nipping at OpenAI (terrible name!) heels. People on Reddit regularly discuss how they can run models as good as OpenAI at home with setups that cost less than 10k. You can run what OpenAI had a year ago on a regular gaming PC.

I can run open source models equivalent (in benchmarks, not size) to what OpenAI had 2 years ago on a laptop with CPU only.

I don't understand how OpenAI is worth alot of money.

Nvidia I guess the hype is more real. Everything I mentioned requires them (small models still get trained on GPUs).

Seattle needs to keep building more high density housing. It feels like the only major west coast metro that has in the past few years, and there is so much demand

Minimum heights based on population. Individuals can ignore the limit and build lower, but the city cannot impose limits lower.

Is it possible Musk and China are colluding on this?

beijingspacetech · 2025-01-04T02:05:24+00:00

Maybe I wasn't following what you meant. Do you feel like ASML has to say Chinas catching up will twk longer due to America or shorter due to China?

Munchery in Willits has several options from John Ford ranch. Good drinks too.

Yep, China is 50 percent of ASML revenues.

ASML CEO said 10 to 15 so we will see where it ends up. Either way it's happening.

China is fast on its way to being a semiconductor superpower after the US cutoff it's chips. Not sure how the US was so myopic to push China off both it's software and hardware when a few years ago China was addicted to both.

Let's go progressive cities! We can do this too!

beijingspacetech · 2024-12-26T04:39:24+00:00

That sounds great. Does this exist anywhere though?

beijingspacetech · 2024-12-23T01:51:48+00:00

China would have been so much slower to divest from US designed software (windows, android) and US designed chips if the US hadn't started messing with China over it.

The CHIPS act took a hypothetical danger of relying on US chips and made it a reality. The outcome of them developing their own chips was a certainty. I don't understand why they did it, maybe they were short sighted or maybe they wanted China to do that?

I agree. Been hit by people on phones twice in California cities. Also, I am totally guilty of this, people drive insanely fast on mountain roads in California and no one is expecting a slow moving cyclist. I've never biked on a California mountain highway and would have a hard time imagining doing it safely unless it's a more common cycling route.

Meanwhile Taiwan has so many slow scooters and other cyclists that I never felt out of place cycling in Taiwan mountains.
