for me, almost all of the work is specs
I am no longer:
- reading docs for hours and hours
- typing (barely at all)
- writing code
- manually doing tight debug loops
- using an IDE
to do this I had to give up reading or even controlling the code and focusing on behavior/design-level control (not superficial, still dictating overall technical architecture)
i have agents doing everything from writing the code, verifying the code, hardening, increasing test coverage, analyzing behavior, algorithmic perf improvements, managing/deploying to cloud resources, etc... (pretty much everything)
and I am accomplishing projects that would take months or years in a fraction of the time.
that's way more than 10x.
somehow, this is harder and more cognitively demanding than writing code
