There's ZERO room for innovation in the projects suggested.
Wanna do some creative thinking? Read some books, learn how normal people think. Explore latest datasets. That's where the meat is. 98% of what you read online has been written by super uncreative(boring) people. They have no imagination whatsoever, IQ is well statistically speaking not too flattering.
Internet is ran by the bottom. It's slop by the bottom, for the bottom. So you need to hang out with creative people.
Tech people write the most boring blog posts because it's aimed at getting hired. Nothing of substance is shared. That's why gwern stands out like a sore thumb. The majority of human beings are incapable of creative thought.
That philosophy has some lingering halitosis of truth to it.
Any inspection of any economy suggests otherwise. How many tire manufacturers are out there? How many different brands, styles, and types of tire? How many total US Dollars per year are those companies sharing?
How about oil changes? Car washes? How about car wax?
New doesn't equal profitable. Making a different product, or service, is where most of the profits on earth sit.
Wanna be a rebel and broke? Then by all means follow the new-new and barely break-break even.
