I've been struggling to capture this sentiment for myself in a way that hits. If shipping code is a commodity then why is everyone's immediate priority seemingly to ship 10x more code. It just makes no sense. I can't seem to get off this hill. Company-wide AI mandates and 100 fleet Agent orchestration Rube Goldberg machines... it's getting wild out there.
Meanwhile my Claude Pro ($200/year) does force me to smooth out my usage and plan more (Sonnet/Opus advisor split). But other than that, I can't imagine what I'd be doing with 20x (200x?) the compute to code sling. I think I'd lose my mind.
