direct sunlight factor

As with it's twin, wind chill factor, direct sunlight factor-- or DSF -- changes the temperature of an object when affected by it, in this case raising the temperature -- rather than lowering it -- in relation to the temperature of the air, due to the warming rays of direct, unimpeded sunshine on said object.
Despite the frigid temperatures at the airport this morning, Josh was able to get all the ice off his plane quickly by pulling it out of the hangar and into the sunshine where the direct sunlight factor raised the plane's surface temperature rapidly to melt it.

The Zero Factor

When society judges people whether they are successful or not by the number of zeros they have accumulated in their bank accounts—when hundredaires and thousandaires are normally overlooked and looked down while millionaires and billionaires are noticed and respected (or even worshipped).
What differentiates the rich and the famous from the poor and the notorious on this side of heaven is not just the fear factor but also the zero factor.

Slack Factor

The ratio of the number of employees in a firm, to the number of Slack channels used by the firm. The higher the Slack Factor, the higher the number of Slack channels per employee, and the lower the possibility of finding that one message you know you just read a minute ago that you needed to respond to.
I just saw a question from Larry, but our Slack Factor is so high, I don't even remember what channel it was in any more. I guess he's not getting an answer.

Cheese Factor

The cheese factor is how believable a scenario is based on how many times it is used in a film or any other form of media.
Person 1: "Me and Alex kissed for the first time on the top of the bleachers at the homecoming football game."
Person 2: "As much as I'd like to believe you, the Cheese Factor of what you just said makes it sound like bullshit."

Oh-Nine Factor

Equal to 0.000000001%. An extremely low probability of something occurring. Was seen in Neon Genesis Evangelion.
The chance of this working is 0.000000001%, or pathetically enough an Oh-Nine Factor.
