The word 'architecture' formally means "the art or practice of designing structures". So a 'Software Architect' is one who identifies (or defines) the structure of a software system based on various rules and constraints. In this context, the design of the structure could be the identification (or definition) of various components that make the system and how they interact with one another to achieve the intended result.

I agree. I am the original poster and I expanded the title to make it more clear. But looks like the mods don't see it that way.
ananthrk | 13 years ago | on: How To Make a Quick Buck
After reading the article, even I found the title tongue in cheek. That said, GP has explicitly called out (quiet well) what he thought was the underlying lesson and I am thankful for that.
ananthrk | 13 years ago | on: Calcutta girl who fled home & marriage at 17 returns as millionaire US innovator
A true Slumdog millionaire.
Not quiet the same, as she comes from a wealthy family. She was running away from the social pressure of getting married and ended up with what followed. [NB: Nothing to take away from what she achieved, I am just responding to the term Slumdog Millionaire used in this context]

ananthrk | 13 years ago | on: The Gift
Would we interpret death differently if it happened "naturally" (as in old age)? [NB: This is a genuine thought that came to me after I read this (poignant) essay and I hope I am not being insensitive]

I am posting this article, which is from one of the leading Indian dailies, in order to better understand some of the issues raised in this article - especially from HNers in the US with farming experience. BTW, the Indian parliament is currently holding discussions on allowing direct foreign investment in multi-brand retail stores (such as WalMart)

The tweet was not even about the finance minister (Mr. Chidambaram) but about the finance minister's son (Karthi Chidambaram)

Cool. BTW, is there a reason for naming the file "isullshit_spiders.py" and not as "isbullshit_spiders.py"? :)
ananthrk | 14 years ago | on: Quote Stream - Push real-time stock quotes in JSON over web-sockets with node.js
Came here to say the same thing (including trying MSFT) :)
Also, the URL "http://xhv51cz0.nodesocket.com/quote-stream/MSFT/ works but "http://xhv51cz0.nodesocket.com/quote-stream/MSFT does not (without "/" in the end)
