Yeah, I’ve seen the type… had a colleague in uni like that. And it’s not like he’s gonna need it for something else, but why spend an hour making them when he could spend 5 hours making the script to generate them in 1 second.
If this is how true programmers think, I’m sorry, I’m not a true programmer then 🤷.
I meant it as a joke, but the way I see it is as a “fast” and fun exercise where their’s no pressure and the only judge is yourself. It’s more about coding something for the fun of it.
I understand the logic, but this really seems like a complete waste of time. I’d rather spend that time coding something really useful than coding that.

It’s not a waste of time if you enjoyed making it. See it as like reading a book or watching a show.
When you have to do something once, do it manually, when you need to do it more often, script/code it.
Oh, and coding is much more fun then manual labour.
Depends for who… I also enjoy welding and woodworking. It’s not always about the end product, it’s about the journey.
And 12 times is not that much. I mean, it’s not like I’m gonna make another one next year.
