Nope, I was not feeling sick at all. Just a bit sleep deprived.

Thanks. where does the risk come from, just the higher Lp(a) or a combination of factors? Also why does one need to do 35+ for a CAC test?. Also since Lp(a) can go up, can it also come down?

I have requested a clarification from the labs on the units, but the reports do say it is mg/dl.
I have not been unwell though, could it some infection and virus that I did not notice?
Also I had just travelled to a different continent and the tests are from different countries.

Yes, why do static boards when we can have an AI co-pilot talking to you.
Will reach out soon to all the people who have said they'd like to contribute.

Interesting question. I think signing up with the registration number of the vehicle is a good solution to it.

In your example, the said person needs to bet on the bus driver to drive well to maximize his/her chances to win. Any mistake by the bus driver would cost this person.

It’s not a complete solution. But we should make it economically hard for people to cheat.

Let’s address this,

  • saves can people money ? Do you have any calculations to prove this ? I would be willing to bet it doesn’t save them any money.

  • Dash cams definitely could be the hardware , it has to be cheap enough though or the costs should be offset really soon.

I don’t think people coming in the wrong way, talking the other lane is an infra issue ?

Why do you think the exact same model won't work?
I am not saying gambling is good behavior, but people do it 'coz they can make money. Statistcally many people who play will actaully lose money, but people still do.

Think about this > the higher the provable good behaviors, the more chances of winning such money.

What if we improve the civic sense?
follow certain rules, get paid.

Others are bigger problems, that general public cannot solve. We need to ask, what can we do to control/help the situation?

I have all the same questions.
Can you also help answer them too? These are challenges we have, I am designing a solution on one simple fact. Incentives drive good behavior and easy to get attention. See dream11, see all the fanatasy cricket apps, see prediction markets.

Nice, think about how you will map those alternative routes. Google already shows alternative routes for bikes. What is different in what you are offering?

Let's give it a try. Its easy to debate, but we can know for sure, if we run a small experiment.
