I currently work with a bunch of people who are "business majors" or whatever and are similarly self-taught in the Tech/IT/Programming space.

It's interesting to watch how they work and the kinds of outputs they produce. Quite a lot of the stuff works... mostly...

It's entirely untestable, not repeatable, undocumented and just stuck together with flaky glue code.

Sure, if you aiming to "make it work" you can do that. If you're aiming to do well... I suggest learning proper technique.
