There should be an extreme sport of trying to advance up the tech ladder with minimal tools as fast as possible.

This would also be a fun Burning Man project. Spend the week trying to recreate a specific tech advance. Or a reality show - compete in challenges to move up the tech ladder. Over time, we'd learn the topology of the tech tree and how to "speed run" these upgrades.
