I write code for a living, and I'm in a sweet spot where I actually do get to write things that make people's lives easier, but it's still easy to forget just how much of a superpower being able to write code is. I mean, the things we do, and the things Julia writes about here - this is literally modern day wizardry. We speak the right words to arcane and inscrutable systems and change reality around us. I love that I get paid for this, but I love it even more when I get to change something from "dauntingly difficult" to "easy" just by thinking about it a bit and asking correctly.
