I won't list the things; yu'll have to read the article. The teaser says, "Kevlin Henney takes a look at six specific impossible things that shape the limits of what people can develop, from integer representation to the minefield of task estimation and prioritization." Now, technically, these things are impossible. On the other hand, they're also things we act as though are possible (he doesn't quite say it that way, but you'll see what I mean). These really do define limits, though, and push at what we can't actually do, and by extension, the (few) things technology can't actually do.
