arshitect
arsh·i·tect
/ˈɑ rʃɪtɛkt/ · noun
1. A software architect who creates overly complex, fragile digital systems based entirely on textbook dogma and slides rather than real-world operational reality.
2. A person who converts simple, reliable code into an over-engineered nightmare of microservices that crash so often, creating massive friction for the developers who actually have to maintain it.
3. An ivory-tower technical leader who completely strips out the basic foundational elements of a component—such as delivering a system with almost zero logging, forcing developers into deep, blind debugging sessions just to find a single error.

The system designed by our local arshitect has almost completely no logging. Every time there is a production issue, we have to debug deeply into the code and review thousands of lines of code just to figure out what blew up.
