I read the article as acknowledging this pressure by arguing that Weird Nerds should not be forced into people management positions. Without the workplace pressure on Weird Nerds to become people managers, would they still manage people? Ma

Googling it comes up with a bunch of calculators to generate time and cost of project, but I don't know how much I'd trust them.. Honestly seems like it comes down mostly to trial and error, and understanding your own process when
