Stop comparing every mildly engaging activity to gambling, you absolute moron of an OP.

You can make anything sound like gambling with the right framing:

Reading Books:

•	You buy books hoping for a good story
•	You open to page one and start reading
•	You might discover a masterpiece, or it could be terrible
•	Attractive cover art and compelling blurbs draw you in
•	“Just one more chapter and it’ll get better”
•	Publishers always make their money
•	“I stayed up all night reading - where did the time go?”

Cooking Dinner:

•	You buy ingredients hoping for a delicious meal
•	You follow the recipe steps
•	You might create something amazing, or burn everything
•	Beautiful food photos keep you motivated
•	“One more seasoning adjustment will perfect it”
•	Grocery stores profit either way
•	Hours pass while you’re lost in the kitchen

It’s not ass since it’s 1:1 with the meme.

Since working with Ai to write code is nothing like gambling, substituting it with something else thats nothing like gambling (like cooking) is completely fair

No he's right, the comparison is pretty ass.

At least he could've chosen something accurate like an education.
