For anyone building weather-related AI apps, I am releasing an exciting iteration on last year’s model.

My Groundhog API is trained on 130 years of data and makes use of 82 separate data sources. Similar to DeepSeek, it is completely open source and free to use.

The primary use case is to make inferences about whether spring will come early or not, using a Mixture of Exports (MoE) approach, but surely others can be found if you are creative.

Other use cases: - All predicting groundhog

A funny thing happened after I stopped using Clicks, the keyboard case that effectively turns an iPhone into an oversized Blackberry: The phone by itself suddenly seemed punier.

I mean that in terms of both size and mightiness. Because while Clicks’ four rows of physical keys stretch an iPhone to comical length, they also add a bunch of powerful shortcuts for getting things done. My typing hasn’t gotten any faster with Clicks, but things like copying, pasting, and switc

I started this project with the idea of using formal grammar to parse chord symbols. I wanted to use it instead of a hand-written parser, which is the common approac
