"There's plenty of challenge for anyone who wants to find it."
There are problems that haven't been solved yet and problems that can't be solved. Most problems can't be solved, since the majority of (our) problems are psychological (i.e. there are no axioms, assumptions, systems, etc to define this class of problem) -- the rest are impossible.
The problems that haven't yet been solved are actually interesting tho. The knowledge systems for these classes of problems are heuristic; i.e. a process of discovery and experience. The intention is often not to keep everything difficult but to keep everything knowable, which is contrary to the "don't make me think" principle of design.
- Mithrandir 16y agoI always run $ man life if I have a problem.
- wazoox 16y ago$ man life No manual entry for life That's what I was afraid of.
- wccrawford 16y agoYou can always re-solve a problem, if you want that challenge. The fact that someone else has solved it shouldn't stop you, if your goal is to have a challenge.
- zeraholladay 16y agoConsider the difference between math and engineering (at the undergrad level). Math majors learn to solve solved problems, since the solutions are instructive; that is, they could accept a solution as truth but proving it is true has a greater value. However, engineers need to accept a lot of mathematical truths since the occupation applies these truths. Either way, both of these systems are instructive. You should be able to reverse a process and discover its discrete parts, if that's your goal.
