Give us some examples of things that were not practically possible. Things are practically possible if the time or money is wisely spent, even if it takes a human a bit longer.
Money and time are precisely the point. Things are not practically possible of a X would cost 100K to develop and it's worth was 30K. But now that it costs 2K to develop it is suddenly practically possible.
2. The abundance of game decomps and recomps becoming available. Literally dozens of example in this space.
3. Reverse engineering of obscure software. A ton of oppertunities lie here.
4. As this posts indicate, severely accelerating existing software by re-writing it in language that are not terrible for performance.
5. Analyzing large volumes of unstructured information.
6. Creating one-off engineering and scientific tools.
7. Beating essentially all traditional Linux distribution, see Omarchy.
8. A personal example: I'm remaking the engine of an old game commercial game in rust.
I'm honestly a bit taken aback that this question is even asked. The volume of software is exploding and the power of the individual has increased a hundredfold.
