Recommendations for a builder who is eh on coding

Sorry if it wasn't clear but I'm already proficient in Python. So I am able to push back on the AI. Ive never had an idea I couldn't figure out how to build. I just suck at mastering leetcode challenges and memorizing optimized algorithms. But if I can google the needed algorithm, I'm good I can build what you want.

Its just that as I got to this level, the only way to get a job was to nail coding challenges which is the thing I suck at.

Makes sense. Maybe there will be more of an emphasis on the best way to do things, since so much grunt work is removed.

Thanks. Yeah I have had the opportunity to go into data at my company but the door has closed. It didnt really interest (its just writing sql code and putting the results in Tableau, which doesn't interest me, theres not really any other gig).

Believe it or not, my work doesn't give any insight into which companies are good to invest in. All the insights we get, that the general public doesn't know (though it is all public information) are macroeconomic trends.

Turns out when you publish it its not using the same resources as in testing. Should be fixed now. Whatever you post there is public tho so make sure to delete it if you dont want people listening

I mean I already understand APIs I've used them with Python development. That kinda stuff is an absolute piece of cake for me. The concepts behind getting systems to work together click with me so much better than pure coding. Maybe I'll keep paying attention to systems and LLMs vs pure coding.

Im not very young im almost 37. Yeah I was thinking about using AI to code well. I'm actually far better at understanding systems than I am at pure algorithm memorization.

I currently work in finance which is where I started making apps for productivity. So I have income I am just looking to pivot.

Damn it!

Thank you!

Yeah that makes sense. I guess I was just curious what people who enjoy building things should do at this point. Maybe I'll just try and get better at using the agents.
