I'm glad @fulhack wrote this clear analysis about estimating software projects. It maybe needs another explanation about why the mean and median completion time for software development tasks are so different, so here's my take. (1/4)https://twitter.com/fulhack/status/1117968632536010754 …
Unlike almost any other production task or industry, software development seeks solutions which are, at their most basic, repeatable; at best, highly abstract and general. One solution can be reused thousands or billions of times for almost zero cost. (2/4)
All the tasks which can be completed using known solutions, no matter how large they seem, will be competed quickly. So what's left after that? It might be a small part of the total, but it will need new solutions, working things out for the first time; all the unknowns. (3/4)
So that's where almost all the time is spent: tasks that you've never solved before. And how do you estimate them, when you have no data? It's at best a guess. (4/4)
I read that as “eliminating software projects” at first and I nodded in agreement.
That would be great! How long do you think it would take to do?
