It's Builders vs. The World
Every project is a showdown between Builders (people learning AI, including me) and The World (bugs, complexity, unclear docs, deployment issues, and everything else that fights back). Building is hard. The natural order is for projects not to be built - that's what makes building so special! In the game log of my builds below, I document the star players (AI tools that help me build), the toughest opponents (where I had the most friction), and my Glue Guy assists that helped pull of the victory for Team Builders. Like calling rematch against your sibling until you win, every project is winnable as long as you don't give up.
My Record: 1-0
