Architecture

Architecture is the study of building design, as well as the practice of designing buildings. The field of architecture does not require as much mathematical knowledge as engineering; instead, a greater emphasis is placed on creativity and artistry. The average salary for architects is within the 70-80 thousand margin, while "rookie" architects may start off making around 40 thousand. It is very possible to become very wealthy as an architect, though it is uncommon. Someone who becomes famous for their designs and is very sought after is known as a "starchitect."

Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice is an example of Byzantine architecture.

A building that is so amazing that it is worthy of a boner.

metal-archives

metal-archives (also known as Encyclopaedia Metallum: Metal Archives) is a user-edited website, established in 2002, which purports to be a heavy metal-focused database. Although the site has garnered a reputation over the years for being "elitist" and "strict" on what can/cannot be included, many bands listed there are actually folk, ambient, industrial, gothic rock and other "headbang worthy" music their site "rules" forbade, otherwise. When you couple this with the secretive personalities of those who moderate/administer everything over there, Metal Archives has the same credibility (and "metal-bility") as Milli Vanilli by the end of the day.

METALHEAD: Metal forums should not be run like a fascist regime! And some metalcore/nu-metal shit is making it beyond the radar here? Fuck it, I'm finding another site to frequent that is actually METAL, not "metal-archives".

HERR WITCHER: I dub thee Dursted, then!

METALHEAD: What the hell is that supposed to mean?

HERR WITCHER: When we ban people from our specialz metal site, it is called dursting, like Fred Durst.

METALHEAD: For a metal site, you have an awfully strange fixation with Fred Durst!

The Archive

The sole purpose of "The Archive" is an index, nay, a database of information that is stored for retrieval by Will Carter. It is crucial to the existance of Will Carter's memory because without The Archive countless people would be forgotten and probably insulted through their being forgotten. The Archive enables Will to find useful information long forgotten by most. It is like the Diary of Tom Riddle--a gateway to the past, to a persona that existed only in the moment of its creation. The Archive consists, currently (Mid 2006), of over 800,000 articles, documents, and transcripts, many of which might come of some use. Will is apparently a bit of a pack-rat in terms of storing data.

Will is able to access any part of The Archive very efficiently and dig up information dating back to his entrance to the internet.

Solutions Architect

Solutions Architect is one of a number of job titles used for someone working in IT who has no real function.

Solutions Architects wander around looking important and can often be seen in meetings although no one is quite sure why they are there.

John: That guy in the meeting just now. Any idea who he was and why he was there?

Sue: That was Jim. He's a Solutions Architect

John: Ah right.
