* Microservices

I think most folks who end up writing "mircoservices" really have no
idea what the term means. They've latched on to some kind of imaginary
romance with RESTful web services, and forgotten how to write good
software along the way.


* Royal Titles

I think in most cases we should address folks how they want to be
addressed. But part of me has a really difficult time with royal
titles. While military hierarchy has terms such as "sir" to denote
respective address for rank or age, I dislike the term with context of
royalty, to say the least.


* Honourary degrees and Doctors

I had thought about comparing honourary degrees, specifically doctors,
with knighthood, but then I remembered that medical doctors have
enough of their own disputes about who constitutes a "doctor" without
even getting into honourary doctors. MD vs DO, medical vs dentist,
english has some elitism.
