Exactly. Having built a few non-trivial projects with Claude Code, you can act as a CTO. At least that is one semi feasible way of using it.

I would say in a generation or two, you could operate in a way where you rarely have to dive into the code.

I’ve been building a project in my spare time with CC and gotten at least 5x more done than I could have alone. Probably closer to 10. And it makes it easier to work when I’m kind of tired and would normally choose not to work on the project at all, because I can relax or do house chores while it crunches on a problem. It’s amazing.

Can you clarify what "non-trivial" means here? To me "non-trivial" is writing FoundationDB or Kafka from scratch.
