Firebase Studio

Firebase Studio is a cloud-based integrated development environment (IDE) by Google for building and deploying web applications, especially those incorporating AI. It provides a collaborative environment accessible from any device, streamlining the development process for teams. Firebase Studio is based on Visual Studio Code, extending its functionality with unique features developed by Google.
Firebase Studio allows users to prototype applications using natural language prompts, images, and drawing tools, leveraging the Gemini API. It supports Next.js applications, with plans to expand to other platforms and frameworks. It also offers various publishing options, including Firebase App Hosting for dynamic applications, Firebase Hosting for static content, and Cloud Run for containerized applications.
Key features of Firebase Studio include:
AI-powered development: Integration with Gemini allows for rapid prototyping and code generation.
Cloud-based environment: Accessible from any device, fostering collaboration and flexibility.
Full-stack development: Supports the development, testing, and deployment of complete applications.
Integration with Firebase services: Seamlessly connects with Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, and other Firebase products.
Multiple publishing options: Offers flexibility in deploying applications to various hosting solutions.
Customizable workspace: Allows configuration of the development environment using Nix.
Support for existing projects: Enables importing projects from repositories, Figma, or local files.
Real-time preview and debugging: Facilitates testing and refinement of applications.
Firebase Studio aims to provide a comprehensive suite of tools for building and publishing high-quality applications, integrating AI and simplifying the development workflow.

Rift along Hwy 29 between Lakeport and Lower Lake Th 5/22/25 - stopped and took pics 

What caused the Rift along Hwy 29 which I've wondered about for years? 


Rift along Hwy 29 between Kelseyville and Lower Lake - Guy's Fault?



"Geologist Dean Enderlin tells the story behind this geologic feature: “The bottom of Thurston Lake is considerably higher in elevation than Clear Lake level, so the two aren't directly connected. Seasonal runoff into Thurston Lake does recharge groundwater, however, which eventually enters Clear Lake as springs in the vicinity of Jago Bay. The water in Thurston Lake is remarkably murky (turbid), because it is fed by clayey runoff from Manning Flat on the ridge to the southwest. This is a man-made effect. Manning Flat was originally a valley with no natural outlet (called a closed basin). Water would have originally accumulated in the basin as seasonal lakes (vernal pools). In an effort to drain the valley, landowners attempted (and eventually succeeded) in cutting a channel through the ridge that separates Manning Flat from the Thurston Lake watershed. Since then, the fine-grained sediments in the Manning Flat basin have eroded rapidly, creating a deeply incised channel that is actively cutting through the soils in the flat and is threatening State Highway 29. As a prank, the channel was once posted with a sign, reading "Guy's Fault," but the channel has nothing to do with faulting. It is purely erosional, but its path across the flat may have followed portions of old roadways and a race track that was once used there." "
