What if houses had a standardised socket for produce. (+) [en]
-
+1(18,888) ◻ Protocol context manager: In big microservice based systems or systems with lots of protocols, you often need to make a change that ripples out through the entire system.

+1(19,123) ◻ Schools, Universities and Colleges are business umbrella organisations: The purpose of a school, college and university is to educate. But what if students want to provide services to the general public or other businesses? As parent category attests it's too difficult to start a business. There is so much administration to be done when all you want to do is a job. I propose schools, colleges and universities have umbrella organisations associated with them and provide an ERP and administration software for running of businesses. So the education organisation acts as a sort of bootstrap organisation for providing products and services. (+) [en]

+1(19,127) ◻ Forever tape abstraction: With computers we often have different places to place data that determines how fast or how large the data is. For example, we have the stack, main memory, virtual memory, page files, disk files, buffers, heap, S3, SANs, NFS. Can we create an abstraction that captures the differences of each of these kinds of storage and allows efficient management of each of them and switching between them so that there is an illusion that memory is infinite but efficient. For example, you might want to load chunks from S3 efficiently into main memory and cached on disk. (+) [en]
-
+1(19,127) ◻ Commit to buy & crowdfunding: Imagine you want something that doesn't exist. What do you do? It should be possible to commit to buy something at a price.

-
+1(19,148) ◻ Needcoins: Issue two currencies. The regular currency stays the same but issue a minimum standard or basic income of needcoins when you spend money in a shop the money for needs is taken from your need budget. Anything that you don't particularly need such as coffee or luxury garments is taken from your other account. (+) [en]
-

-
+1(19,181) ◻ Recursive coordination portfolio: Portfolios are really effective at managing bets and risk. You own a little bit of everything to return as much as you can. What if we could manage our coordinations with others as a portfolio. People could decide to change their behaviour to benefit someone else. Such as writing documentation how some of their code works. Or adding an API (+) [en]
