    There should be an extreme sport of trying to advance up the tech ladder with minimal tools as fast as possible. Ie, start with stone age tools and try, in a week, to build a forge and basic set of iron tools. Start with iron and make a steam engine.https://twitter.com/balajis/status/1160421993948147712 …

        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.

        What I love about this concept is that what we'd be gamifying, glorifying, practicing & optimizing is not some pointless physical feat (sports) or bullshit virtual world (games) but rather the technological leaps on which our entire civilization is built.

        I want teenagers walking by parks, looking appreciatively, and saying "Wow, there's wood, clay, running water, you could totally do a Stone to Bronze leap with that. I saw SidMeierIRL do it in 6 days live on Twitch last week".

        It should be ok to use any tool you want, provided you can create a copy of this tool by the end.

        Huh. That's a different, also interesting challenge. I was mainly thinking about leveling up: how to use toolset X to get to X*. I guess I wanted to play at recapitulating progress. But, you're right, self-replication is a super-important game too.

        Awesome and very related! I was thinking less about "meet survival need X with tech set Y" (here X=shelter, Y=rocks), and more about "How to expand toolset X into significantly more capable adjacent toolset X*". The game I want to play is about moving up the tech ladder.

        If I had the money, I would do this as a research project. Buy up a large plot of land, and without using a single outside material, try to advance tech as far as possible.
