So what this tells us is:
1) There are very few new ideas.
2) Problems exists until someone gets annoyed enough to actually fix them
rather than find bizarre ways to solve the problem.
3) I have too much creative time on my hands with not enough productive
time.
From which we can infer that no work on unrm will be happening on my
computer for a long time.
