Do you think you could estimate a series of random tasks withi n 90% accuracy? We’ll do an interesting exercise in estimation and then talk about the value your estimates provide. We will talk about three st eps to improve your estimates right away and discuss other methods of es timation. \;\n \;\nThis event will be hosted by PDX Blacks in Tech nology with networking and food sponsored by PNSQC. \;\n \;\nAgend a: \;\n5 pm - Network &\; social \;\n6-ish - Announcements & \; Lighting Talk \;\n \;\nBio: Moss Drake has over 30 years of exp erience developing software and leading software projects.
