Get the Connigured mug.Related Words
Within the field of Information Technology, the act of implementing, possibly but not necessarily, good practice configurations without any business value just for the sake of using the available functionality and thereby creating the feeling of self satisfaction which has as the consequence that other involved parties are hindered in performing their day to day operations which invokes great frustration for said parties.
An architect suffering of configuration masochism designs the configuration of a totally private cloud instance in such a way that for each department in the company a small "firewalled" subnet is created while discarding the fact that in the end all services implemented by each department within their respective network segments have to communicate to each other in a non predictable way. Because of that an endless set of firewall and routing rules have to be created to make communication between these services possible which defeats the purpose of having firewalled network segments in the first place.

Get the Configness mug.Figuring out how to get a piece of computer software to do something you want. The implication is that the task to be accomplished is simple, but ends up taking much longer - perhaps the manual is missing or unclear, filled with drivel - or, worse, written using a Wiki. Usually this compfiguration must be performed at an inconvenient time, with other deadlines pressing. For instance, often searching for how to change something that you *know* amounts to altering a single software variable can turn into a major compfiguration nightware. Once a simple change takes longer than 20 minutes, it is called a *compfiguration exercise*, and normally lasts between two and eight hours for the average badly written application such as Apache, up to days for monstrosities like Sendmail - or even weeks in the case of some Windows changes, where not only does the final configuration matter - but in fact the *order* in which the configuration was issued.
