A bit challenging since none of the repositories I looked at actually compile.

EA says that if you remove (or refactor!) the dependencies it might work but I don't know if that's high enough confidence to dive in.

Today I built a service for learning languages via poems. Stores your progress in Dutch, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, and Attic Greek. Also Allows you to add new poems beyond the basic set via a camera / OCR service.

One aspect of Buckminster Fuller that many people don't want you to know is that he had a number of politically incorrect opinions which are in the archives but would tarnish his public reputation if they were easily accessible. I believe this is the main reason that certain aspects of his records are kept behind lock and key as it were.

Mine is full of fitness instructors showing of their fitness challenges,dancers showing of their synchronized dance routines, and oddball humour. I had a moment where some BLM stuff trended but on the whole it seemed to show both sides (albeit a bit the extreme versions of both sides).

I have a pretty extensive personal system partially based on OKRs but I find the key element is doing the exercise as a group and having accountability partners.

I started using privacy.com for this reason. You can spin up a separate card number for each transaction type with its own limit (e.g. $100/month or $200). You can also just turn them off at will.

Having a forum where people discuss tech trends with an explicit commitment to reasoning from first principles would be very interesting, especially if it had cross over to physics and other sciences.

There were a few products prior to MakerDAO that failed when their collateralized peg collapsed, most notably BitUSD and NuShares.

MakerDAO is somewhat more sophisticated and holds way more capital but the fundamental problem is that you can't exclusively collateralize a dollar peg from a highly volatile unit of account with elastic demand or black swan events can wipe it out.
