As I have taken on more senior roles I’ve learned how to estimate better and most of the time it’s just estimating much more time

  Good old Miracle Worker formula. Take your original estimate and double it. =)

  Initial estimation * 2 is my way nowadays.

    Golden formula of time estimation!

    How unscientific - 3.14 is the way to go.

      shitty the boss with excel yelling about bad estimations -> add more pi-decimals.

  I've taken to doubling my estimate and then stepping up to the next order of magnitude. Eg. 2 hours becomes 4 days. It allows for delivery, QA, bug fixes and documentation.
