I only code 20% now.

I only code 20% now.

AI removed coding as the bottleneck.
Understanding the problem is now the job.

Code is cheap now
Decisions are expensive
Clarity beats syntax
Product thinking beats coding speed

Most developers are optimizing the wrong skill.

They try to code faster.
But speed is no longer the problem.

Understanding is.

If you optimize the wrong skill,
you become irrelevant faster.

Are you still optimizing for coding speed?
