'requify' is a term unique to software development. The essence of requification comes into play when you have code written that has already stricken a balance between being both readable and terse, and yet you decide, for some reason, to make it even harder to read by both repeating yourself and being overly verbose.

e.g.

Without requification:
```
def reconcile_data(type:)

# do stuff with data based on its type
end
```
With requification:
```
def reconcile_data_for_this_specific_type

# do stuff with data based on its type
end

def reconcile_data_for_that_specific_type_which_is_this

# do stuff with data based on its type
end

def reconcile_all_the_data_for_different_types_than_the_first_and_second_specific_type

# ^ this is the most optimal level you can hope to achieve via requification
end
```

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
