List of Lists of Open Questions
a compendium of research questions other people are pondering
Questions
People on the internet wonder things. Several of them publish lists of what they wonder. Here are all such lists I know of.
(Curiously, I have only ever known men to exhibit this particular listmaking behavior. Is it a fully malebrained thing to do? Or are there counterexamples?)
- David Friedman
- Institute for Progress
- Gwern
- Patrick Collison
- Alexey Guzey
- Sam Enright (some are questions, some are projects)
- Tyler Cowen
- Luke Muehlhauser
- Jacob Trefethen
- Mark Lutter
Project ideas
Some people (or groups) also publish lists of projects they’d like someone to do. Here’s a smattering of those.
If you know a good candidate for either of these lists, send it my way – [firstname] [lastname] 42 at gmail.
