5 years ago? I'm pretty sure some variation of this question is asked here about once every 5 weeks or so...
Not really. Before posting the question here I searched HN for recent similar questions: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

Even though some of them are lists of startup ideas, they're mostly from an investor point of view, rather than enterprise/end-user point of view.

They might not be quite as common as I thought, but a quick search turns up quite a few riffs on this in just the past year:

Nonetheless, I hope some good stuff gets posted in response. But past experience suggests these threads don't get a lot of activity. shrug

All of them.
