What startup WOULD be a good idea now?
Since this may be a moment when VC is realizing that startup investments need to be in something different than what they've invested in lately, I thought we could ask for things that we don't want to make, but would be willing to pay money for. Just in case anybody out there is listening.
I would also like to be able to send, say, an apple bought from the local farmer's market, to a lab, and get back results about its nutritional content. Then, compare it to what the FDA says that apples should contain. Same for non-apple foodstuffs, of course.
Also, testing for lead and other not-nice stuff would be good.
I'll start: I would be willing to pay a small amount monthly for a search engine that was restricted to independent websites and news sources that don't have a problem with adblockers.
