    it’s like gambling. you hope it churns out good stuff – and some of the time, it does! lucky!

    then you try your luck again. and again with small “fixes”. and again.

      That’s only if you have no idea what you’re doing with it. Depending on your skill level in development, that is not the case at all.

        i don’t think that applies at all.

        if you have no idea what you’re doing, you’re surely going to think all the churned out stuff is good.

          That depends on how much of an idiot you are. Intelligent people know when and how they are ignorant and they use that to inform their decisions.

        Indeed the more skilled you are the more infuriating it becomes when it does the dumbest shit.
