I know this makes for good press and beauracy does suck. But bylaws and regulation result in safe and livable cities. If everyone just did as they pleased, it would be chaos. But it is a good reminder to always bring practicality into situa

Is anyone good at estimation? What professions? And why do we only speak of bad estimation when it is negative (i.e. over budget, late). To me being wrong on the other side (under budget) is equally worse, setting aside or acquiring addit
