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?
