The era of manual software development is coming to a close quickly. My view on software development has drastically changed. I believe in the future the role of engineers will be to build software factories, not the software itself.

Hard to explain. I would have not believed it 2 weeks ago. Give Claude Code a try and iterate as much as possible on helping it do the thing you want. Now scale up and run n in parallel.

I'm using LLMs at work, from VSCode, I'm not sure really sold on agents yet, I'll probably have more to say in a couple months.

💯 my dad- a Mechanical Engineer who built nuclear powerplants- once told me Software Engineers aren't real Engineers because Engineers design systems, not build them. He had $10,000,000,000 budgets and 300-man construction crews. AI should be my 300-man construction crew.

So far programmers have been manual factory workers now quickly being replaced by more efficient and better robots. Like it or not. That’s what’s already happening. Embrace change.
