Probably not in that way. For me, development is itself a major layer of abstraction between what we want doing and have to do. Achieving outcomes may not even be possible. What we see is a lag between conception and adoption.
What has been interesting is that by working on my own stuff over the last year and a bit, my ability in building applications has never been better. This doesn't make me want to go out and showcase these skills on the job market, but instead to connect with other developers to build solutions.
Guessing it is like building dev.to, only you guys know how good or bad the code is, but if you could click your fingers and have the same product you probably would.
