Fecunt
(pronounced fec-unt - /ˈfɛk.ʌnt/)
Someone who is relentlessly and exhaustingly inventive, constantly producing new ideas, systems or solutions with little regard for long-term impact, sustainability or existing tools. A fecunt may be brilliant, but their unchecked creativity often leaves behind confusion, complexity and a mess for others to clean up. Common in tech but by no means limited to it. Equal parts inspiration and chaos.
Etymology:
Blend of fecund (fertile, especially in ideas) and cunt.
