Random() Functions Is Not Random

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of programming languages to call these functions "random" when they're about as random as my aunt Gertrude's weekly bingo schedule! 🙄 These so-called "random" functions are LITERALLY just deterministic algorithms in disguise, honey! Feed them the same seed, and they'll spit out the exact same sequence EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. The BETRAYAL! It's like ordering a "surprise" meal but getting the same chicken sandwich for the 57th time. JUST CALL THEM WHAT THEY ARE - pseudorandom! The Matrix kid knows what's up!

Easiest Choice In The History Of Coding

When someone asks for a random seed value, there's only one correct answer in the universe: 42. No need to think, no need to generate a proper random number—just channel your inner Douglas Adams and drop that Hitchhiker's Guide reference. It's the perfect programmer inside joke that separates the seniors from the interns. The best part? It works every single time, and nobody questions it because it's literally the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. Why waste CPU cycles on true randomness when perfection already exists?
