Should CEOs Code? I coded an iOS app in 8 weeks to find out

Two months ago I decided to build our first native iOS app myself. I’ve been coding on the side for ~15 years, but had never touched Swift or SwiftUI. Still, I went from empty repo to App Store approval in exactly 60 days, working on it only on the side. The app itself is a global PM2.5 map with detail views, charts, and integration with our open-source sensors -straightforward, but fully native with Swift and now live on both iOS and Android (native Kotlin version).

this is awesome, completely agree.

I just started working with agents that have full control over my 3d printer (btw… time to find that fire extinguisher). Gave me some absolutely insane ideas I wanna try. Caught a glimpse of how cool self-improving agents are going to be.

One self-improving Claude Opus agent is all it takes to be a CEO now I think
