The first question when considering the issue of hard problems is: Why put out the effort to solve them? There are two basic reasons for attacking hard problems. Either the problem is significant or finding the solution is satisfying. Puzzles and games appeal purely to the latter motivation. Solving significant problems have a strong tendency to provide economic benefits to the solver, either directly, or via an organization they are a member of.
When looking at problems taxonomy arises quickly. What kind of hard problems are we looking at? At this point in this blog I am looking at 2 kinds of problems, software design and software debugging. Or, how do you do THIS?, and why is it doing THAT?
