As a counterpoint, I’ve been coding professionally since 2010.

Every feature I’ve asked Claude Code to write was one I could’ve written myself.

And I’m quite certain it’s faster for my use case.

I won’t be bothered if you choose to ignore agents but the “it’s just useful for the inept” argument is condescending.



I'm in the same boat. I'm 20 years into my SWE career, I can write all the things Claude Code writes for me now but it still makes me faster and deliver better quality features (Like accessibility features, transitions, nice to have bells and whistles) I may not had time or even thought of to do otherwise. And all that with documentation and tests.
