Here's something that caught my attention — Lee Hutchinson admits he can’t code. But what’s cool is, he still figured out a way to create a log colorizer without deep programming skills. According to Hutchinson, the tech world often makes coding seem like this huge mountain to climb, but honestly, it’s mostly about breaking things into small steps. So, instead of giving up, he decided to vibe-code a simple tool to make log reading easier. And get this — he did it by leveraging some clever tricks, not by becoming a coding wizard. As Hutchinson points out, you don’t need to be a pro to build something useful; sometimes it’s just about getting creative with what you can do. What this really shows is that even busy professionals who don’t have time to learn everything can still make tech work for them. So, keep an eye out — sometimes, all it takes is a little vibe and a lot of curiosity to make things happen.
I can't code.
I know, I know—these days, that sounds like an excuse. Anyone can code, right?! Grab some tutorials, maybe an O'Reilly book, download an example project, and jump in. It's just a matter of learning how to break your project into small steps that you can make the computer do, then memorizing a bit of syntax. Nothing about that is hard!
Perhaps you can sense my sarcasm (and sympathize with my lack of time to learn one more technical skill).
