Recompose

The rather complex process of composing something seemingly simple out of predefined parts that needs to be done again and again to eventually produce a better product/result. Usually, this process is applied to a critical resource or infrastructure that is not available during the recompose.

1) A: "can I please put this plate into the dishwasher now?"
B: "Look, I'm doing the recompose. Give me 5 minutes and there will be plenty of space for your plate."

2) We're currently waiting for the next recompose so we can actually use the switches to control our lights.

3) They forgot to install the lamps at the last recompose, so we have switches, wires, but still no light.

4) I cannot talk to you now. I've just left the meeting and I cannot think clearly. I need a recompose.

Strongly recommended

Something required for an application, contest, audition, etc. if one wants to have any chance of moving forward or succeeding. While one is technically allowed to give a submission without the "strongly recommended" material, their submission will likely be ignored.

The job application states that having an elementary school diploma is "strongly recommended," so you better have one to stand a chance.

“That’s not recommended.”

Engineering speak for “absolutely fucking do not do that.” Usually used to answer a question about an operating state that is obviously destructive.

Sometimes can be used less severely to describe exceeding safety limits of a system.

Customer: “What if our reactor is overheating and instead of decreasing load we accidentally decrease coolant?”

Engineer: “That’s not recommended.”

Customer: “Our load has temporarily increased. We want to increase to 106% design capacity. Can the machine handle it?”
Engineer: “Possibly, but that’s not recommend.”

% Daily recommended allowance

An experimental 1980 dietary guide based upon the Pritikin Diet fad diet published in 1979.

% Daily recommended allowance is even worse than the Food Guide Pyramid because it promotes eating 5 out 7 servings of food in the form of carbohydrates without even suggesting that the carbohydrates should come from more than one source.

recompenscate

getting what you are actually owed at work

A person is working harder than their compensation, so the employee would "recompenscate" products, office supplies, ie "I had to work swing shifts and the boss didn't give me a raise, so I recompenscated a case of beer from the stock room"
