Dental offices all over the country have scanners that use regular cameras + photogrammetry to create 3d models of your teeth. They've become pretty widespread with the rise of Invisalign, Smile Direct, and others. These scans can be pretty inexpensive, like a few hundred dollars or less.
Pathi (
https://www.pathiapp.org/), which is a free app that connects people who really need someone to talk to with volunteer listeners who want to help.
We are recruiting listeners, and looking for someone to help build an Android version!
I started Pathi, a volunteer-run app/hotline for people who really need someone to talk to. Right now we have 12 volunteer listeners taking about that many calls every day.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pathi/id1466338610
We need volunteer listeners, someone to help us bring the app to android, and some design assistance.
If you’re interested in helping, please reach out! (email in profile)

I've been working on an application that might help with some of these issues. It allows protesters to communicate anonymously and securely in crowds using adhoc wifi/bluetooth and onion routing. Protest leaders can create a protest and add a password that spreads via word of mouth in the crowd and ideally isn't told to police/security forces. Leaders can designate lieutenants and the chat can be read-only to everyone except them. And it works even if security forces turn cell towers off. The work in progress is here:

Isn't there way more deadly and virulent stuff locked up in labs all over the world, like ebola and anthrax and VX? And we don't know what medical discoveries smallpox might yield decades down the road. Let's not destroy anything.
Seriously.. I didn't even realize that was a translation till I finished the first paragraph.
The same thing you get out of answering questions on Quora and editing articles on Wikipedia. We're not expecting instructors to spend anywhere close to 15-20 hours per week, or even expecting them to grade homework.
Thanks for the question, we appreciate the feedback.
No, we just want to make online education better, and part of that is better support for OCW than Youtube comments.

We at Udemy are huge fans of OpenCourseWare. Personally, I learned how to code from MIT's Intro to Computer Science and now I get paid to do it. The content is seriously invaluable.There is a problem however. When working through these courses, you have virtually no support available to you.
