Then conjecture that NOT estimating will fix that symptom. Then conjecturing (here) that Not Estimating will somehow fix the problem of when you are DSTOP. The supposed evidence in the presentation, that estimating "does not work" starts with the Chaos Report. Principle #3 - Believe the Data, Not The Estimates .

I've seen estimates abused by bad managers, so let's NOT estimate and that will fix the behavior of Bad Managers." While the human behaviors are real and observable, conjecturing that decisions can be made in the presence of uncertainty without estimating the outcome of those decisions, there is no principle to support that conjecture.

The conjecture that we can make decisions in the presence of uncertainty without estimating the impacts of those decisions is without any principles that can be tested beyond personal anecdotes of I know people who spend other peoples money without providing estimates. We need to learn how to predict with credible methods.

40 - Estimation is a Problematic Practice of Companies Doing Dangerous Things. A #Noestimates advocate makes the claim that having a ±10% accuracy for estimates of cost and duration is a dangerous thing. Define the probabilistic ranges of the work in a single point estimate manner. There are databases for Function Points .

This is used in support of the fallacy that estimates aren't needed to make decisions in the presence of uncertanty. Why Guessing is not Estimating and Estimating is not Guessing. Software Engineering is a Verb. The #NoEstimates advocates love to use a Deming quote. Who's Budget is it Anyway? IT Risk Management.

ML plays a critical cybersecurity role by identifying potential threats and exploits (weak spots in company software). Engineers can plug those gaps to keep data safe. Both are machine learning models: classification assigns categories, while regression estimates values within a range. Anomaly detection.
