Thanks for your comment, Jon. Has estimation never worked out for you?
We've been in the market for 16 years now and we believe that estimation is really important. Yes, it's rarely spot on, as we've mentioned in the article, but it does give us a vague idea of what to expect.
Extremely rarely, and generally only on very small tasks that are very similar to tasks done many times before... so those aren't really even estimates, they are knowns (like "Yes, this will be done by the end of today").
Overall, the time spent estimating is much better spent just getting on and doing it. This can make management uncomfortable, but they get used to it 😄
Removing estimation results in happier developers who write better code without rushing
