Death and taxes are unsolved engineering problems

Death and taxes are unsolved engineering problems

Summary

This quote humorously implies that the certainty of death and taxes is akin to unsolvable problems in engineering. It suggests that despite great advancements in science and technology, humans have yet to find a way to avoid or overcome these two inevitable aspects of life. In this context, death and taxes are regarded as inevitable forces that challenge our ability to control or eliminate them, as much as unsolved engineering problems defy a definitive solution.
