Have you ever asked a programmer how much longer “this” is going to take? Here goes another typical answer. I am done with most of the tasks, need extra time to finish the last few ones. And the “last few tasks” never ends or takes enormous amounts of time.
On the one hand, we all know that estimates always go wrong. But there is another aspect to this too, i.e. the last mile problem. It can be because of the “fear or shipping” or not applying the guideline “done is better than perfect”.
This talk is about a few tricks I tried not to get into the “perfection” mode; instead, get into the habit of “shipping”. Surprisingly, that helped me to avoid providing estimates :)
