Professor response

(n) A type of response in which the sender types a long, formal and neat e-mail, only to get an extremely brief response.
The student, or sender's email:
Dear Professor, regarding your current work of study, I recently discovered that your field of work has been a long-time academic interest of mine. I know that you are a busy man, but would it be rude of me to inquire if there was any type of research or assistance that a student could possibly involve him or herself with? If not, I would completely understand. However, please note my current grades and classes would prove as ample evidence as to my worth.
Sincerely, John Doe (#555555555)

Process Philosophy

A paradigm of linearity that connotes a sequence of dualities.

Implies that some dualities in the sequence are more important (meta-iterative) than other dualities in the sequence.

Stipulates that a violation of the sequence in certain instances (dualities) leads to a value more false than false: meta-false (cyclical-falsity).
Process philosophy (sequence) implies that linearity is actually cyclical.

Kidney Stone Software Development Process

The "Kidney Stone Software Development Process" is a degenerate process where releasing software to the field is incredibly painful but eventually "passes" and reaches customers. Developers within the process find that once the code portion of the project is complete, there are so many gates held by so many other internal groups that the software must first pass through, including peer review, quality assurance, documentation, not to mention possible conflicting schedules of other teams, product owners and managers, that the customers may not see the finished product for a long time. The process is akin to passing the proverbial kidney stone - incredibly painful, but eventually, it passes through.
We use the Kidney Stone Software Development Process at work; I'm still shepherding the finished code through multiple painful gates - who knows when this will actually ship.
