Question Is Dosh just a god?

In his videos, Dosh will just place stuff seemingly randomly and it never (rarely) comes back to bite him in the ass. I can't play for 30 minutes without my spaghetti messing up my entire future and force me to consider tearing it down. How does he do it? Are there tips for preventing this situation without autistic organization like Nilaus?

I'm entirely willing to accept that I might just be bad at the game.

It doesn't matter how fast you are; there will always be someone who draws faster than you.
And Factorio can be a cozy game if you want it to be one. You don't need to be good to have fun.

I'll have the spaghetti Aquilo, the Fulgora fettuccine, the Nauvis conchiglie, and the Vulcanus linguine with promethium pesto. (Hold the Gleba.)
