Why bother? Ask yourself first if you’re doing anything truly meaningful. The answer is likely no; it’s all irrelevant. Time is finite. The thousand ideas you had don’t need to be built. You’re only being productive for show. You’re orchestrating your time building agentic irrelevance, why? It’s not going to make life any easier long term. What you’re actually doing is crafting an addiction, a reliance on technology, because you aren’t doing what humans must: learn. You’ll spiral out once the systems go down, and they will, because you’ve forgotten to build contingencies. And your knowledge gap will cascade beyond help and time. For you are on the path to becoming the walking dead. Go out and find value in what you’re capable of, not just in productivity gains; 1 line of code has more meaning than ever! it’s the critical thought. Time slows when you’re in the zone. Good luck, and remember, the tortoise beat the hare.
Yep. It's like trying to achieve a million LOC per day. Easily done. But pointless.
