2A – Bug List

You know what really grinds my gears

>Bugs list 

In our everyday life, we come across hundreds, if not thousands of “bugs” that plague our society from minor inconveniences to major delay-inducing annoyments. These “bugs” reside in the very fabric our society, yet many require very simple solutions. These simple solutions are being we, entrepreneur strives as it is our duty to find and eliminate these bugs. In my everyday life, I witness many things to which I feel to be changed and here are just a few.

 Public transportation in major cities is good but in towns, the bus service is terrible As someone who was born and raised in suburban Kissimmee, FL the bus systems are notoriously bad. Even on days with little to no traffic, the bus would still arrive anywhere from 30 to hour late. 

Why do wireless products degrade faster than most cable-based products Personally, I listen to music everywhere I go and I will agree that Bluetooth is very convenient to carry around as you don’t have to worry about the cables getting caught or tangled. 

Why inside various supermarkets or building (ie Best Buys) is mobile data so inconsistent. While working at BestBuy, a very frequent problem was the inability to access the internet while inside the store. This made the job unnecessarily harder as customers would try to explain what they were looking for without having either the name or image of the item they would looking for. Why do whole foods cost more than a week's worth of fast food This is fairly straightforward as its hard to promote a healthy living style when 20 Mcchickens cost the same a week’s worth of groceries (or less). 

Why do supermarkets/restaurants/stores in university areas have either terrible service but a good price or terrible prices and offer the same food I’ve noticed this recently when I went shopping for food as both the prices and deals of many products in the Publix store where being sold at a high price than the products being sold at the same store about 2~3 miles away. 

Why doesn’t the Publix down 13th street honor any of the deals offered by other Publix’s even though there is another one a couple miles away that does. 

How can we circumvent the issue that plagues the android os without resorting to custom firmware The Android software suffers many of the same problems as any another piece of software but the biggest problem I have with Android and why I think so many people like Apple products is that each phone has a different version of the same software. This means every type of android from Lg to Samsung have their own version of the Android software, but what makes the problem worse is that every carrier has their own version of android for that phone. Maling troubleshooting problems for many Android devices more problematic as a fix for a T-mobile device may not be the same fix for a Sprint device even though it is the same phone. This also makes getting updates harder as each update has to go manufactures first then the update is made for their devices which then pushed to the service providers, to whom have to make their own version of the same update to be released to their customers. This can cause delays up to 6 months of when the update was initially made and by the time the update has become available a new update is probably already finished. 

Is there a way to make a wireless connection just as good as good as wired 

A way to make over the ear headphones without messing up your hair. This is another personal grip as I love to listen to music on the go but hate having a depression in my hair when I take off my headphones. 

How do combat the current wave of diminishing features on smartphone/mobile devices I'm just annoyed by the fact that every year new phones are being sold with less and fewer features yet being sold for 1,000 +. How we can prevent the lethargic process of introducing universal updates to open source projects. 

Way to consistently prevent unwanted objects from entering the washing machine/adding a way to preserve or restore objects that enter the washing system. I'm just tired of losing pens to the washing machine :( 

The creation of a universal charging adaptor/ The lack of product capable to convert to various charger types to other charger types. This problem has been somewhat circumvented with the introduction of wireless charging, but it is still annoying to go to a friends house and they do not have a compatible charger. 

Why is it that people commit to new year resolutions for only a week then abandon the who project a month later.

 Ways to increase cybersecurity without self-hosting. Emails and personal information getting leaked more and more frequently and with the shut up of various user hosted sites having a private email is becoming more and harder. 

Making ads less intrusive or creating a way for ads to be blocked whilst also being able to generate revenue for the viewing site. I use Adblock. I want to keep using Adblock. I also don’t want many of the sites I visit to get shut down because I don’t like ads. 

Why isn't there a site the easily translate technological lingo into something that most people could understand; which can be used in assisting the average population in making technological purposes. How we make the write speed of a hard drive the same as one of an SSD/or making SSD’s available in much larger sizes without it costing an insane markup. Why can Hard Drives go all the way up 17 GBS for 500$ but SSD’s could barely reach over 2tb and cost thousands of dollars 

How can we create a VR system with inducing motion sickness Making portable charging more realistic/ making battery life longer/more reliable This creation of list comes from any aspects from both my daily routine to problems faced when pursuing my hobbies/research. 

The biggest bugs I face in my are heavily based on the inconveniences of many technologies brings as it seems in this modern age of constant updates and new releases many developers are not taking the time to ensure the best possible product to the point in which features are being removed from many devices in the name of “innovation”. Whereas the developers who do try to make the best quality product cannot compete with the fast pace market making it undesirable to pursue such strategies. Worst of all are community based software as they meant for to be made by the community and for the community yet when it comes to basic security updates or bug fixes updates seem to be rather inconsistent as some have same day resolutions while others require many months of workarounds/bypasses/hotfixes until the problem is “eventually” fixed.
