Estimation: Where Everything is Made Up and the Points Don't Matter
Manage episode 227541594 series 2403859
Estimation is the bane of many software developers' existence. Nick, Travis, and Brandon discuss (and argue) about why estimation can be valuable, whether it's too expensive, and what you can do to help your team deliver consistent value whether or not you're expected to estimate software.
We estimated this episode should last about 30 minutes, so naturally it's just over 50.
