*Summary: *Estimation is an unnatural activity for human brains, which tend to hide our own ignorance from us. This brown-bag begins with an exercise, adapted from Steve McConnell's software estimation training, in balancing accuracy with precision. The exercise is fully available to remotees. Facilitated discussion follows, on what we can learn from the exercise and on general estimation and forecasting topics as raised. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
