Harvard is the 'best case scenario' for US research pedagogy (at least, financially). They have a $57bn endowment. I think the takeaway here is that the days of most PhD programs in the US are numbered

It appears that Meshtastic is free and open-source, and it allows people to use a LoRa device to send end-to-end encrypted messages across unlicensed ISM bands (e.g. 915 MHz in the US)
