The aim is globally, we're working on speeding it up and cleaning out trains and water... We'll probably finish the US within a few days and move on to the EU or other places.

Bezos should give BO to SpaceX (or maybe Rocket Lab) to run, much like Buffet gave the bulk of his money to the Gates Foundation.

It will a) put the best person on the job, b) close down an unnecessary spat and c) remove the opportunity cost and let Bezos focus on other things.

It would be a win for everyone on Earth apart from ULA.

I find it puzzling how random OSM things go to the top of HN on a seemingly monthly basis. I imagine some vast conspiracy network promoting these links and wonder who's in charge and what their motivation is?

I didn't know any GIS when I started OpenStreetMap and I think it was for the better. A fresh approach often yields a lot of progress.

I've noticed the $0 thing too, plus the enormous amounts of "stolen" IP in the games - assets, music, entire games...

Would be fun to chat - my email is in the profile, tried finding yours...

IMHO You need to make it legal to open and run a hospital (hospitals are basically local state-granted monopolies like cable companies). You make it legal to offer differential pricing. You decouple healthcare from employment. You allow employers to offer more than one insurer.

Most of what we need to do is just remove the monopoly rules.

A number of people, including me, have been building similar things, see http://price.hospital

The problem seems to be figuring out a revenue model, and translating all the medical terms in to human.

As a long-time OSM contributor (former software creator, creator of OSM Foundation board yadda yadda) I like this piece also.

Hi Richard :-)
