The Four Horsemen Of Software Estimation

The four horsemen of software estimation, ladies and gentlemen. The noob's blind optimism, the junior's attempt at padding, the senior's refusal to commit, and the principal engineer's existential crisis. After 15 years in this industry, I've learned that the only accurate estimate is "it'll be done when it's done." And somehow management still expects us to plan quarterly roadmaps with precision. Magical thinking at its finest.

The Programmers Flag

Ah, the unofficial battle cry of every software project ever started. WE DO THIS NOT BECAUSE IT IS EASY, BUT BECAUSE WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE EASY. Nothing captures the soul-crushing reality of development quite like that red flag of truth. Every project starts with "Yeah, should take a couple days" and ends with you explaining to management why you're still debugging the same issue three weeks later. The eternal optimism followed by the crushing reality is basically our industry's business model at this point.

Answered January 7, 2015 If you are writing an operating system, I suggest you use C. If you are writing a very complex application where execution speed is extremely important, I suggest you use C. If time to market is key, but execution speed is not important, I suggest you use python. If your boss told you: "do it in Java or you are fired" I suggest you use Java and look for a better workplace.
