Claims that most coding is now LLM-driven and that work shifts to supervising long-running agents which run 20-hour agent workloads and continuously build, test, deploy and fix staging systems. Describes tools actually built: a reverse proxy on Bandit, socket_disc over websockets for distributed messaging, EKV key‑value with CASPaxos (benchmarked ~86k mixed ops, 7k CP writes) and a network block device filesystem in Elixir matching Go performance. Shows nightly fuzzing, end‑to‑end agent loops that trace, benchmark and hot‑upgrade running runtimes.
