Acceptance of inevitable destruction.
When you know that something is inevitably going to ruin what you have done, but you do it anyway for whatever reason you may have.
Quoted from 2b2t wiki:
The Builder's Dilemma, The Sandcastle Mentality is a philosophical concept that is one of the pillars of the "veteran mentality". It means that a player accepts the destructive nature of 2b2t, and learns to live with it. Its name comes from building sandcastles on beaches: no one builds a sand castle believing or expecting that it will last forever.

Magpie Mentality in recruitment refers to the behaviour of serial appliers—candidates who apply indiscriminately to every job they see, driven by a compulsive attraction to new or “shiny” opportunities, regardless of their relevance or suitability. This scattergun approach often signals poor career focus, a lack of commitment, and raises red flags for recruiters and hiring managers who view such behaviour as inconsistent, unreliable, and ultimately unhirable.
