it's kind of like people talking about what makes a business successful: the idea or putting it in to practice some say ideas a "a dime a dozen"; the prevailing message that "code was never the hard part" is kind of the reverse of this In truth the top comment reports correctly that it probably varies from person to person; obviously for people working on intricate algorithms to solve cutting-edge problems, "code is the hard part"; for those who simply make use of existing algorithms like that but to maybe solve an existing problem for themselves or others, it's more about knowing that algorithm exists and making use of it and "code isn't the hard part" (for them) hence you can probably identify where code is and isn't the hard part with different pursuits
