Which burning problem you'll solve today?

I will continue to change myself to be the way I would like others to be. I will continue to behave in ways I would like to see repeated by others.

Bottom up change, it's the only thing that scale nicely and works sustainably in the long term.

Well, I don't know what the big Scenarios are, but I would be interested to know how humanity could keep on with the impressive technological progress and increases in productivity while simultaneously remaining true to our biological roots. That is, gathering together in urban metropolises (with all their advantages) while still integrating the best parts of our ancient environment: living in nature, forging deep relationships, meaningfully engaging in small communities etc.

Compared to what our living environment was for hundreds of thousands of years, it has changed so rapidly lately that I suspect that the human psyche has troubles keeping up. This results in unnecessary stress, anxiety, depression, feelings of meaninglessness, loneliness, drug abuse etc. "modern" problems.

Humans are very adaptable and I kind of enjoy living in a city, but I still wonder how much of the human experience we are missing because our biological blueprint was molded by thousands of years of natural selection in a totally different environment, and the modern experience just might fall short in some ways.

1. Experimenting to see if a practically useful monad library can be made for a popular statically-typed language: Java[0] or TypeScript[1]

2. Always wanted a type-safe way to construct efficient SQL queries building bottom-up as in SQL rather than left-to-right as in ORMs[2].

3. A framework using (1) and (2) so building backends are not time-consuming or error-prone. Still in early stages.

Getting myself more money, so I will have access to a larger share of the limited resources on this planet.

May sound boring and small but it is a burning problem I'm solving today, we're adding SSO or single sign-on to Tesults (https://www.tesults.com) - long overdue and requested at this point by many teams. Hope to have it done by next week.

Not as grandiose and admirable as Space X and Neural Link but in a small way we do make the world a better place, we even have a promise, giving open source developers, small teams getting started, individuals and educators free SaaS to handle something that would otherwise be pain to do on their own anywhere near as well.
