Ask HN: What are some products you wish existed and you would happily pay for?

3 pointsby ankitkumar98about 5 years ago
Hi, I see a lot of people on Twitter saying "If someone would do this, I would happily pay X". Trying to see what are the common problems you face every day and what can be a potential solution you'd want someone to build.

Affordable local system space travel (Would love to fly around Saturn 1 time before I kick the bucket)<p>General virtual reality (I like many others have migrated for work. It&#x27;d be nice to give my parents a real hug through the web)<p>Open source computer brain interface (I want Emacs but for all corporal senses)<p>Provably valid crypto-elections (Let&#x27;s say I have a dispute with my local neighborhood about garden gnomes, we can all vote and agree on a binding solution and have no doubts about the legitimacy of the outcome)<p>Personal and private bioinformatics (Let me sequence my own genome without the usual Silicon Valley Big Brother using my God-given DNA for secondary purposes). Your own DNA is not implicitly copyrightable by yourself under American law, correct me if I&#x27;m wrong.
