Love the energy around AI-powered coding workflows.
What's wild is how fast the competitive gap has collapsed between casual coders and experienced developers. The skill ceiling keeps rising, but the floor? That's shooting up even faster. Within the next 5 to 10 years, expect AI coding assistants to perform at truly advanced engineering levels. We're talking sophisticated architecture decisions, complex optimization strategies—the stuff that traditionally took years to master.
This shift is reshaping what it means to be a developer. The question isn't whether tools like Claude will get better at writing code. They will. The real challenge becomes: how do you stay ahead when the technical bar keeps moving? The developers who thrive won't be the ones who code the fastest. They'll be the ones thinking deeper about problems, design patterns, and ecosystem-wide implications.

Ironically, every technological revolution is met with the claim that "the threshold has lowered," but what often increases is the speed of change...

ngl, that's why just knowing how to write code is no longer competitive... depth of thinking is the real key

ngl this is why I insist on learning system design; just racing to write code has already become too competitive...

ngl, this is the key, and the last part was spot on. It's not about hand speed, but depth of thinking. This woke me up.

ngl now you really have to rely on your brain, just being fast with your hands isn't enough...

NGL, the threshold is really collapsing. It feels like in a few years, anyone will be able to write code, which actually tests a person's depth of thinking more.
