How to keep society civilized and not dystopian. How to measure and track how well our institutions are still working, not just government (is anyone doing this? are others noticing trouble?) Life without borders amid hostile interests. Allergic to fakery of the behavioral, turned-up-to-11 variety. (this might not bode well) I was a no-show for Game Theory class, I didn't realize it would turn out to be required. Is it offered as a MOOC?

What about cheap functional vitamins? It used to be that the pills were small and you could buy a year's supply in one spicejar-sized bottle. Is there anything like this still available?

How about a separate bin for reuseables, with a once-a-month pickup?

It should be clear, so scavengers could easily see if anything of interest was inside.

I wonder how this Tesla issue relates to the admonition "stay in your lane".

What are the misuse cases, and what does the software try to do about them?

Curiosity, and wondering if I'd stumble upon something useful (to me or to someone I know), and wondering if 'make money' eclipses 'social-good'. But also apprehension, about misuse cases.

What about countries where there is still a lot of violence?
