Today on Oxide and Friends, @ahl and I will be joined by @noahharlan to talk about his work on wicked problems. Wicked problems are those that defy easy solutions -- or even concrete characterization. These problems often represent our greatest societal ills, and can be despairing to work on. But wicked though they may be, progress CAN be made on these problems -- and technologists can serve a critical role. Noah is a technology entrepreneur who has thrown himself into the wickedest of wicked problems, and has found opportunity to make tangible impact.
