MODERATORS
The client says: sorry I actually wanted the table legs to be be longer... And curved... And- wait, no, actually I think I'll tell you more later
Them: "I want one that looks exactly like this one on this website."
Me: "Sure... but you can just get the one on the website, and it will be cheaper."
Them: "Yeah, about that..."
They want exactly the one on the website except with every measurement multiplied by 0.893, corner angles that would make Escher blush, and also they want it to stand 4 feet tall with no legs.
Get to work.
Can we get it with five legs, with three on one side and three on the other?
Requirements have changed: we need all legs on one side.
It'll also need AI.
I want a table that 100 people can sit around that fits in your average living room. It should also be affordable and made of really high quality materials
What do you mean it's going to take weeks? Can't you just use that agile thingy?
