you expect, even when you take into account
Hofstadter's Law.

I multiply all time estimates by pi,
to account for running around in circles.

I always add i, because most of the
assumptions are imaginary.

Shipdate was the feature dropped in Duke
Nukem Forever.. So it ships with all features..

上面這個是回覆正經的：

Exactly. Ship date is a feature. It will have
lower priority than some features, and higher
priority than some other features.
I've never seen a team that could estimate,
months in advance, when a particular feature
set would ship.
I've been part of great teams that regularly
review progress and have the power to adjust priorities.

看完這段我覺得相簿的 project management 完全失敗？
ok, i know it's no longer a pure english post...
