I just raised a pre-seed for a medical equipment company, entirely my initiative. The costs were so low that the people were genuinely impressed. Im like, yeah, I like pacing around and putting together how all of it works, and I spend all my time talking to patients. Oh, and my cofounders are all in the medical field. No idk how to code, but I hire people and autogenerate Anki flashcards on important pieces of technical information so I am aware of whats happening. I have been a chronically online individual for my entire life. I was well aware of crypto and the rise in the importance of programming, and I was fully involved in plenty of online communities. All of my friends were programmers and mathematicians… The problem was that I never learned how to code. With my friends, I usually came up with ideas and structures, and then they would turn them into things people could really use. We published marketplaces, game cheats, math helpers, mobile apps, social experiments, huge A/B studies for personal interest, database analysis, scraping, merchant services, and so much more. I never contributed a single line of code. I just read a lot of books and was an interesting personality. My friends are now extremely well off, and I am too, but our lives have taken a different path. Now that I’ve discovered Claude code, I can literally do all the things I’ve always wanted to do. The capabilities align perfectly with my strengths and what ive always been doing. I structure everything on paper and build it out. If it works, it usually generates something, and I can justify hiring someone overseas to get more technical with it. It feels unbelievable. This new method is so suited to my strengths. I can get lost in thousands of books and relationships, but I’ve never been very good at coding. I am VERY guilty of technical debt, so I put a lot of extra time into making sure all of the branches are super organized. I used to be SO aware of my deficiencies, but this new tech came out of absolutely nowhere and gave me the ability to compete. I am so grateful to everybody and especially God for these amazing capabilities. I know the downsides and drawbacks, but I also know the shortcuts and optimization patterns… Now me, a person with 0 medical background, 0 coding background, and who just likes reading is put in a position to help real patients get better and save thousands of dollars. submitted by /u/Motor-Tiger-6031
