It's funny, where you see persistent failure, I see the engineering process at work and making previously unfathomable progress. Amazing what people take for granted.
- naasking 3y agoBeing consistently wrong in the estimates of how long it would take, despite the history of failures, does not make the projections reliable. It shows the problem is poorly understood, even now.
- timschmidt 3y ago> Being consistently wrong in the estimates of how long it would take I don't know if you've ever organized a group of people... If you want everyone to be together and ready to go by 8:00am, you will have to tell them to be ready by 6:00am. Else you will be late waiting for someone. The consistently wrong estimates you point to are exactly that. Else they wouldn't be consistent. Again, where you see failure, I see effective management practice. Why do you think that is?
