Honestly my goal is to learn how to teach an agent to build a maintainable product, so I'm way more interested in the learnings at the agentic level (how to prompt/direct/manage context/restrict tool use, provide reusable shims, etc) than getting into the details of a css bug. That's just not a level of abstraction with sufficient leverage for what I'm trying to do.
I stopped coding a while back because I could have more impact directing a team of developers than writing code personally.
For my use case, the agents are now how I can have that scaled impact.
Absolutely. All of these "but you could have done that easily" from frontend developers or backend developers or systems engineers -- like yea, if I have the time or interest in those things, sure. But I don't. I care about an end product way way more. Blows my mind that there are legions of people building things that they don't think are important enough to get to the finish line quickly and efficiently.
