Hi, this is Neil! Thanks for subscribing to my newsletter, Utopic News!
I'll send you 1-2 emails per month when I find or create new ideas and essays worth sharing.
I'm still focused on solutions to the World's Biggest Problems!
Many of my posts are works-in-progress — if you see an idea that interests you, tweet/DM me @neilthanedar!
🧑🏭 Let's Accelerate American Manufacturing!
We need to create an American accelerator for the rapid R&D and manufacturing of critical products and materials.
My vision is to retrofit an old Michigan manufacturing plant to become a new startup manufacturing hub.
I even found us a $6.85M 7-story building in Downtown Detroit that would be perfect for a public factory. See my post below for my YC for Manufacturing pitch, including a link to my dream Detroit location.
Create an accelerator for the rapid R&D and manufacturing of key products and materials. Build a public factory to support a new generation of industrialists.
🚀 The World's Biggest Problems is evolving!
In 2020, I first tweeted my World's Biggest Problems idea.
In 2021, it became a 100-point ranked list.
In 2022, it's a blog and newsletter.
In 2023, it will be a book.neilthanedar.com/worlds-biggest…

🔑 Do it 100 times.
I love this idea from @visakanv about doing something new:
1. Do it 100 times.
Write 100 songs, cook 100 omelettes, talk to 100 people. It never seems like a huge deal until you try it yourself. It’s manageable, and yet it stretches you, and you’ll be observably different at the end of it. Effective way to get a foothold on a new thing

There's something magical about doing 100 of something.
Creating a 100-point ranked list of the World's Biggest Problems got me into a zone where I could zoom in and out of the whole idea-space clearly.
I’ve now written outlines for 10 of the 100 World’s Biggest Problems!
I can see the book from here.
The last step is to make it a movement.
🙏 I need your help!
