I've been thinking about #uncertainty from risk POV, & Doug Hubbard's concepts of calibrated estimators. My team does weekly calibrations for #estimating uncertainty. Listening to Choi-Greene talk about AI's certainty - confidently wrong, sometimes - I couldn't help but think that having calibrated, specific uncertainty on events, plans, projects, #technology would become MORE valuable in the future.

In carpentry you measure twice and cut once. In software development you never measure and make cuts until you run out of time.

Calvin Liang: The Fed says this is a cube of $1M. They’re off by half a million.. “I first tried counting the stacks right there in the room. The cube was tall, so I had to step back to see the whole thing, squinting at the stacks, trying to follow each row. I lost track almost immediately. Also, people were starting to look at me funny. Apparently, staring intensely at a pile of cash while […]

Editing this latest batch of screenlogs is a chore (just about halfway through December, now). I worked a lot of longer days, so there's a lot of footage. Also, when I'm doing a lot of rendering, there's more task-switching, so more edits to make to summarize it.

But these will among the most valuable ones for estimating my maximum real output.

I'm hoping to get a useful number for estimating production time on episode two, then follow through with that and see if I can't actually get it done in the predicted time.

It'd be a real confidence builder if I could. #LunaticsProject #Management #Screenlogging #Estimating
