I think this is a cool idea and something I was interested in also, if you need any help developing it I'd pitch in!

Ehhh options really kinda kick ass, but only when you know what you are doing and understand the max profit and loss of a trade.
I really think Robinhood might go out of business before Gamestop.
After today, Id love to see RH get picked up for pennies on the dollar by Schwab treating it as a trade in at a Gamestop.
Why does it matter whether the user is using it for long-term or YOLO-ing meme stonks.
Is American Airlines a meme stock? They were halted too? Think there were any admirable long term investors wanting to buy it today? I dont know, but what I do know is that they wouldnt have the choice if they were using Robinhood.
I think the main point people are upset about is that it just feels gross when the rug can and as we saw today WILL be pulled out from under you at the discretion of a few people within their brokerage.
Going to get around to zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance
This was such a kick ass idea
That has been the sticking point with me. Having a case that attaches them to my keyring has proved to be a great convenience.
Have you explored opportunities to apply data science to agriculture?
This is the most straightforward route imo. Just pick up some of the skills required to get going, which it sounds like they are based on the post, and just start tweaking with stuff in your field. They already have a great advantage of specialized knowledge about the subject they would be applying it to and Ag, from someone who grew up and worked on a row crop farm, seems very ripe for exploration through data science.
I never really realized how much effort goes into open source or the community dynamics that power it until I read that Working In Public book by Nadia Eghbal. Really shines a great light on the dynamics and effort required to keep alot of these projects going.
I think both of these solutions are more preferable in my opinion.
Ehhh Id rather take the trade-off of just manually blocking than Sony taking a big brother approach. You may have a higher sensitivity to harmful words though. I think that having Sony intervene on every instance of a troll on a platform targeting young adult demographic is going to be a fairly tall task.
this is bizarre. I do not see how just blocking a user isnt a sufficient form of moderation for party chat harassment, why would you need to bring in sony to the mix of this??
