Episode description

Are estimates a necessary evil? Is it just good business? Are you able to predict the future based on the past? Or is it just an enormous waste of time?

The #noestimates movement started with the No Estimate Programming Series on Woody Zuill's blog. Since then the #noestimates hashtag on twitter has seen a vast amount of discussion, and today's episode of Roasting Marshmallows probably won't be an exception.Β 

We will talk about both sides of the discussion: Why estimates are important and how they lead to success, but also why estimates are a waste of time and how it enables destructive behavior.
