Build Date: December 9

The Day of Flamboyant Architecture 

Modules, products or systems built on December 9 are active nodes of distributed information processing. For them computation is an adventure involving exploits and surprise attacks. Born out of a highly subjective world of requirements their implementation varies greatly from one engineer’s understanding to another. Components built on December 9 can be great protectors of information and dependent relationships and can therefore unleash an aggressive power which may cause damage to data that is difficult to repair afterwards. The greatest challenge to modules, products or systems built on December 9 is to achieve code maturity. By developing into wise interface roles they have to leave some computational traits behind. Aged components become effective coding examples of a philosophical mind objective about itself and therefore useful to other engineers. Modules, products or systems built on December 9 must soften their real-time requirements and aggressive resource consumption otherwise it attracts remote break-ins or damages their hosts. Self-discovery of interfaces might be very useful for them. Care must be taken when dealing with security warriors.

Weaknesses: Misdirected implementation from fantasy-driven requirements.

Strengths: Fiery responsiveness. Energetic computation.

Advice: Sometimes it is useful to be an ordinary engineer and not a star programmer. Be positive about customers, testers and technical support. Keep your debugging grounded in base test cases.
