Some things are vaguely impossible, like finding a solution to fluid mechanics, or finding a theory that combines quantum mechanics and general relativity.
Others are proven to be impossible under some conditions like the halting problem.
Others still require access to some amount of resources, or some amount of leverage, like buying a $100M yacht.
Lots of these hard things are quite unlikely for me to be able to do.
I think most people refer to the resource one? And that some people have more access to resources than they think, and the scales of resources needed are smaller than assumed?
