It was a fair bet that the "DD" was "Driven Development", but then I got stuck on the 'B', because I couldn't think of an appropriate variant of "Bollocks".
Bollock? Bollocky? Bollocksome? Nope, stuck.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

One of the key challenges of computer design is how to pack chips and wiring in the most ergonomic fashion, maintaining power, speed and energy efficiency. I guess they'll be very good at recursion

Microsoft is moving to make most of its external (and some internal) events digital-only for its FY'21 in light of impacts of the coronavirus. Yes, that means Ignite 2020 for sure and likely Build 2021, too. I guess the travel budget is done for the year

Most people use vim in two stupid dimensions. But not me. I use it in three To exit: you must press Esc, :wq in nine dimensions

One of the new features of Visual Studio 2019 (beginning with version 16.4) and .NET Core 3.1 is the ability to build C++/CLI projects targeting .NET Core. In case that frying pan is feeling too comfortable

Zoom for Windows converts network locations into clickable links. What could go wrong? And you thought "showing everyone how messy your home office is" was the worst part of a Zoom meeting

The Death Star from the Star Wars franchise is a technological wonder that could only exist in fiction. Proof the Emperor had it destroyed for insurance purposes
Yes, it's 2016 news, but including as Chris keeps sending it over. So, I figured I'd add it to allow him to rest at home ![Wink | ;)](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/smiley_wink.gif)

And in all of that, they left out Darth Sharkey's salary. (Someone has to keep their devs entertained.)

Lets have a closer look at one of those figures.
191,547,745,149 bulbs, claimed to cost £41,374,313,130 in electricity per day.
Where I am, electricity costs $0.25 per kWh.
$41,374,313,130 would buy 165,497,252,520 kWh, or put another way, they've calculated power use at the rate of 0.864 kWh per bulb per day. That's 36 watts, 24 hours a day.
Though, if one checks the price of power in London, it's only 13p per kWh, so we need to multiply the consumption by 1.923 to make the figures work. That's a touch over 69W, 24 hours a day.. Hmmmmmmmm!

If you want to publish your blog on CodeProject, then add it as a technical blog:
