“Then there’s Konstantinopolitanischerdudelsackpfeifergesellschaft,” Tom Halsted noted, “a German word which my mother swore she came across in the 1920s. She died in 2006 at age 99, so I can’t verify the source of this delightful, almost certainly made-up word, but I like to think there once was a bagpipe manufacturer in Constantinople, perhaps managed by a German company. Even if there wasn’t, I like the name Dudelsack!” But a Dudelsackpfeifer is a bagpiper, so the mythical firm presumably trained musicians rather than made instruments."

from Michael Quinion's excellent (free) e-mail newsletter "World Wide Words," Feb. 14, 2015: [^].

I have direct knowledge through channels I can't reveal that the Illuminati of Agile are preparing for the coming of AntiSpec, the bottoms'-up nemesis of rooting for PooperPig's top-down.

Re-programming programmers' minds through sprints and Turkish dervish music played on Scottish instruments connected to hubble-bubble's is only part of their fiendish master-plan.
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009
