When building Local Guides Ranking—a global leaderboard for Google Maps contributors—I wanted to give users a way to show off their stats on their own blogs and GitHub profiles.

Hello! I built Flopper to make it easier to compare GPUs and understand the tradeoffs for workloads for AI and beyond. When researching GPUs from say Nvidia, AMD, and Huawei, I kept running into the same problem: specs were scattered across datasheets, and matching them to available configurations, vendors, and prices was cumbersome and a bit weird and frankly annoyingggg!
