  (19,210)   Funding-Work-Revenue cross dependency:  To get something created and sustainable you need money and customers, to get customers you need something created. To get something created you need worker. To get funding you need something you're going to create. It's such a vicious cycle that has no obvious opening. If people could get together to create a product, they could all profit in excess of a salary. (3, +) [en]

  (19,203)   Invention code:  Imagine there's a list of attributes that you can design something to have and there's a list of implementations to those attributes. This looks like a nested list of numbers [[1], [3,2, [0, 2, 3], 3, 2]]] where each placement corresponds to a known property of that invention. (0, +) [en]

  (19,200)   Synchronize Postgresql databases:  Imagine issuing a COPY TO query for every table in a database and then syncing the resulting CSV with other nodes. We can add a version column to every table so we avoid syncing unnecessarily. Conflict detection could be implemented by showing multiple copied and marking one as active. (0, +) [en]

  (19,197)   Unlimited upside debt and debt tax autopayment:  The risk of debt is that someone can default on their debt, but that person shall eventually earn money, we can guarantee repayment of debt by taxing that person after essential expenses and repaying the debt without the debt growing unsustainably (0, +) [en]

  (19,197)   Human block hotel:  There is an affordable housing shortage. Imagine a crane and a building that is filled with capsules for human sleeping, when you want to go to sleep, you get into an empty capsule and the door closes and then you are picked up by the crane and put onto a pile of capsules. When you want to get out, you press a button and the crane moves boxes around to get you out. People at the bottom wait longer to get out but they do get out eventually. There would be emergency failsafes too, in case you get stuck. (0, +) [en]

  (19,196)   Front offloading risk strategies:  Everything entails risk of failure, we can manage risk of failure by front loading terms so that losses from failure is limited, insurance is an example, it protects against adverse effects, there are funding strategies that offload risk from the attempt, such as Pipe which exchanges subscribers for capital (0, +) [en]

  (19,196)   Active investment gives poor returns:  Actively managed investments rarely return more than the whole market. It's almost as if intelligence doesn't help Active investment is the act of researching companies and initiatives and deciding what to invest in. Unfortunately the returns from this activity are less than investing in index funds. Index funds represent a bit of everything or the whole market. Ironically an index is actively decided upon, the criteria to be included in the index is a decision. Some companies enter or leave an index based on revenue or other criteria. (0, +) [en]

  (19,196)   The Predicament of Having Nothing or society is terrible:  To survive, you need money, to get money you need to provide services to others or provide value, to provide value you need money, to get a job you need to provide value, nobody pays you before you work a month, for things to be easier for you, someone else needs to do work on your behalf, every man carries his own burden, nobody is willing to extend a debt to someone else unless they're rewarded for it, Life is difficult if you have nothing.

  (19,194)   Eventual consistency strategies:  Eventual consistency is database state that eventually looks the same everywhere. It assumes a multiple replica database. Each replica is available during a partition. So updates can occur to the same data. You need some way of resynchronizing changed that interfere with eachother (0, +) [en]

  (19,191)   Metaphorical programming:  I feel that abstractions in programming are not powerful enough. What we really want to program with is metaphors. So I imagine complicated systems visualised a network of pipes like a circuit board. And I can introduce the metaphor of cars driving around a network. A loop is a depot that produces cars around a circuit. You can have visibility and observability of a system by rendering dataflow visually. (0, +) [en]

  (19,184)   Maximising use of the CPU:  Imagine a 2 dimensional diagram where each Y is a separate thread and X is time. You want work to fill the 2 dimensional diagram. Unfortunately most people's for loops look like a sequential row on a table, rather than a column. You want rows and columns to be filled. can we write an algorithm that fills the rows and columns with work and coordinates communication automatically? (0, +) [en]

  (19,150)   Slow life:  In the world businesses are expected to borrow money and pay interest on the money as return for the use of the money. You owe more than you were given. As a result you cannot fail as then you shall be out more than you received.

  (19,137)   Life scalability:  The paradox of the economy means that a large portion of society shall be poor as they won't provide more benefits than they cost. The capitalist system means that you need to provide a lot of value added benefit to lots of individuals to profit. In other words there is a scalability problem to providing for yourself (1, +) [en]

  (19,130)   The Paradox of the Economy:  Everything you buy needs to pay for all the salaries and costs of and needs of everyone involved in producing the good. This relationship is recursive.

  (19,124)   Work aggregation and work pattern matching:  Everyday 7 billion people do something in their average day. Someone needs to decide what these people do and some of it is intellectual and some is physical. Why isn't customer service perfect? Surely there is enough people to do the work. Why can't I phone government or my bank and my problems be resolved instantly over the phone. There must be a system that everyone could use that allows the work that each person does to satisfy the needs of multiple people. I propose work items are created and matched to others that have similar patterns. We could combine jobs and information together so that someone on the way somewhere also does other tasks that help others that have similar problems. If I am doing some work on a computer, this work must match patterns of someone else's work on the computer. (2, +) [en]
