Scaffold the lunar observatory.

Sovereign countries should self-host, sure. How to pay for it?

Compiled code could have various annotations that generate a smart contract, such that a SECFIX triggers terms & conditions for funding and resolution by escrow.

If we're inside a black hole, even if we turn everything into compute, there's not enough to figure how to leave.

Applications: implications, simulations, and experiments. Gobble the frontier; wring out the usable.

Kepner-Tregoe is mentioned at the end, unifying a system of business analysis with software development.
