You record the amount of time it takes people to do a crossword puzzle or play a game of chess. After a while you'll be able to make a distribution graph of how long it takes. Then you can give an accurate estimate along with a proba

The only reliable way to estimate is to find another relatively similar project and compare it to that. You can say stuff like this new project is roughly similar in scope to Project X but maybe it's about 20% more complicated due to

Green card holders can have their GC stripped for committing crimes. If free speech becomes a crime then the GC is at risk. Note - I don't agree with it but I think this is the logic the current administration is using.

I had a similar experience. I worked for a place where if you worked 48 minutes more per day, you'd get every 2nd Friday off. This was a unionized place that was pretty strict about not working extra hours due to overtime rules. Aft

How did you "run into each other, from time to time"? This seems to be the key part. There's research that shows that relationships are built via multiple, random encounters. Do you think he still would have dropped by your

IME I've found there to be the expectation that there's about 10-15% available for negotiation to make the candidate feel like they got a win. Of course, some exceptions may apply.

I really doubt more than 10% of people do weightlifting and have high muscle density. It's likely closer to 0.1% which is why BMI is a good guideline over a group.

I moved away from Victoria to the US 5 years ago and don't regret it at all. Even as someone with only about 10 years of experience I felt like I was nearing the ceiling of earning ability in Victoria. Paired with the ridiculous cost

The more interesting question though is why didn't timezones develop like this initially? In 1868 there was no telephone to call another continent. There was no airplane for fast travel over long distances. In retrospect this makes s

The same thing happened with the Fyre Festival. The organizers didn't face consequences from defrauding the people they sold tickets to. They face consequences from defrauding the investors.

What if the manager is bad? Metrics can help other people identify that a bad manager may not be identifying very good developers.

This is incredibly naive. Popular platforms receive a lot of horrific stuff being posted. Some things need to be censored. Without moderation every platform would dissolve into a race to the bottom. For an example of this see this artic
