What are some of the biggest problems in the tech industry? I mean issues that you face every day for which there is no clear solution.

The two biggest problems are amongst the oldest:

- naming things;

- cache invalidation;

- off-by-one errors;

There are no technical problems, only organizational problems. This is why requirements -- what is to be automated -- are never understood, and that is what gives rise to the appearance that there are technical problems.
