shipping my first piece of software. i was playing the game Mewgenics. i knew why the developers decided to not show all of your cats at once (players will optimize all of the fun out of your game), but i thought that was particularly egregious given you can have upwards 100 cats, and keeping them all in working memory was too taxing.
so within a day, i had claude code make me a PyQt6 app that over the next ~2 months grew in complexity and functionality. I had 600 users. It was tranlated into Chinese, Russian, and Polish.
The speed of taking an idea to production was unbelievable. And I am not technical. I learned a lot about how software development worked. Super glad I did it.
