Do you think you could estimate a series of random tasks within 90% accuracy? We’ll do an interesting exercise in estimation and then talk about the value your estimates provide. We will talk about three steps to improve your estimates right away and discuss other methods of estimation.</p> <p>This event will be hosted by PDX Blacks in Technology with networking and food sponsored by PNSQC.</p> <p>Agenda: 5 pm - Network & social 6-ish - Announcements & Lighting Talk</p> <p>Bio: Moss Drake has over 30 years of experience developing software and leading software projects. Which, coincidentally, is about the same amount of time he has been encountering managers in hallways and answering the question “How long will it take to build X?”</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://www.pnsqc.org/">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
