Boy, I love it when people make my point for me. Just today Steve Pavlina did a writeup of ten limitations to human capability. Many of these limitations or weaknesses are what I’ve been and continue to write about. For example, if you are in the habit of monitoring your internal state you have a leg up in many of these areas already, particularly in the areas of legacy code, infinite loops, and error correction. Incidentally, while you’re there, check out the rest of his site.
