just saw this story about a dev whose kid thought coding used to be about typing every single symbol manually. it really puts things in perspective when you realize were moving away from the era of
perfecting syntax and into something much weirder. the focus is shifting from how to write the lines to
the actual vision behind them. it used to be all about mastering the craft of symbols, but now that vibe-coding handles the heavy lifting, the real bottleneck is just knowing whats worth creating.

fundamental logic that comes with struggling through bugs, or if we are just finally being freed up to focus on the big picture.
maybe the era of the pure syntax expert is officially dead does anyone else feel like their value is moving toward product design rather than technical implementation? im curious how everyone is adjusting their learning roadmap
