I recommend to look at the tether trading volume. If too many people are requesting their dollars at the same time, tether will go bankrupt and with it the bulk of the 'value' of the crypto empire. (hard to get a site that is up

Clicking on the related work on the idea "Shell with autocompletion" lands you at a page that says " Finally, a command line shell for the 90s".

Especially the ideas linked to package managers and shells make me question why these tools have been stagnant for so long. Even small improvements in those areas would save millions of dollars and countless hours of frustration.
