> But last week I made one in about a half hour that is by far the best I've ever written or used.

There's a discussion to be had about whether we software engineers can still say we made something or not. I think that with sufficient effort put in, we can still make that claim but should be careful about how we phrase it.

I also think that if you put in just 30 minutes of effort you absolutely cannot claim to have written it or had much input into it at all.
