The Parable of Painting an Office
Today I'm taking a bit of a different track on what I'm writing about. Instead of something very technical, I'm going to talk about something completely non-technical - estimation. Estimation is one of those things that everybody wants, but nobody ever really gets, and this is something that can be really hard to explain to product folks, but I've used this example to explain our faults in estimation quite a lot, and so I wanted to actually write it down and share it with folks in case they could use it as well. ยป
