But even then...don't you think his insight into and ability to verify a PR far exceeds that of most devs (LLM or not)? Most of us cannot (reasonably) aspire to be like him.

Like I said if you didn't know what you were doing before, you won't know what you're doing with today.

Agentic coding in general only amplify your ability (or disability).

You can totally learn how to build an OS and invest 5 years of your life doing so. The first version of Linux I'm sure was pretty shoddy. Same for a SCM.

I've been doing this for 30 years. At some point, your limit becomes how much time you're willing to invest in something.

But some can aspire to be him circa five years ago,

while Linus has his own efforts multiplied as well.
