Show HN: I Wish There Was a place to post product wishes
I kept having "I wish there was..." moments --ideas for tools or apps I wanted but couldn't find.

What if a news channel treated the world as fundamentally deterministic, reporting events as the inevitable outcomes of prior causes rather than personal decisions?Every story would trace the chain of events, historical context, and systemic influences that led to it. Headlines might focus less on “who did what” and more on “how conditions converged to make this happen.” For example, instead of “Mayor Makes Controversial Decision,” it could read: “Economic pressures, council dynamics, and policy
