I daydream about starting a company or non-profit that helps others bring their ideas to life. The space would have all the equipment, technology, and staff to be able to prototype anything. The idea is similar to a maker space, just on a whole other level in terms of professionalism and quality of the space. The daydream also includes a whole program for bringing in college and high school students so that they really understand what STEM looks like in the real world, and to peak their interest around science and technology.

It always starts with intervention. For example a guy just enjoying a newspaper and drinking his coffee unexpectedly gets a helicopter visit in his driveway. Then it follows with the guy being asked to get in the helicopter, there's no time, etc. If the guy says no then further pressure will push him out his current situation. Almost like Bilbo Baggins and his visit from the dwarves after he rejects Gandalf. If he accepts, then he's given an explanation and his life turns upside down. Said guy must abandon his core beliefs in order to embrace a new truth. This is of course all symbolic of religious conversion, and -- ironically -- it is used in most stories almost religiously. Once accepting the truth, guy proceeds onto journey where he must fight one or more source of "evil" in order to protect the ones he loves. In the end, the evil is triumphantly overcome and guy is able to return to his normal life. Almost normal anyway; the taste of his coffee just isn't the same as it used to be.
Looking For: Find someone with a common goal and try to unite our strengths as one.

I stopped daydreaming in kindergarten after the teacher complained. The world is a poorer place because of it but I liked my short-signted vision-less teacher anyway. I recently started daydreaming again after a lifetime of avoiding such activity and my stories are always the same: Making the world pristine again, free of pollution, throwing all the national leaders (they are all sociopaths) into prison and welding the bars shut, abolishing war by bankrupting the aerospace companies that pour billions into lobbying for war (it is how they make a profit), enforcing the space treaties that ban militarization of space so that people can peacefully settle other world without fear of being blown to bits by military or by terrorists, privacy of consumers & citizens up to European standards, no famine, no hunger, clean water for all humans, clean air for all humans, no micro-plastic in rain, and much more great things. My motives for creating this better world are wanting to be a decent person, practicality (hey, I'm exposed to land, air and water pollution and carcinogens same as you), and becoming extremely rich by doing all this. Oh, and I don't want any thanks or credit or fame. Let other people take the bows. I prefer to do the work and keep my privacy.

They'll be some sort of problem or injustice and I imagine a fix. I usually come up with something that would only be a solution to a few people. That's the productive 1% of my daydreams. Then there's 99% scatterbrained nonsense where I'm equal parts procrastinating, having fun, and dealing with my emotions.
Looking For: To meet programmer(s) interested in my startup and network in general
