LSTN makes headphones and gives hearing aids to people when you buy some of their cans. Pretty cool. Would like more ethical action paired with luxury products. https://lstnsound.com/

A perpetual stimulus or a guaranteed income would certainly solve a lot of problems for all. Even though it will likely often trickle up to the landlords, it will enable a lot more freedom and economic output, and it does not have to be a

If a group of toddlers gets their cat is stuck in a tree, calling the largest toddler over to fetch it will also not work. We have to be more creative than resorting to brutalist means. True, I did not offer a solution, but if I suggested

Collections are primary. [Sequences], {:key value} pairs called maps, and other collections are the fundamental building blocks. Makes a huge difference when you start with sensible datatypes what sort of power you have.
