Explore the counterintuitive world of project estimation through the lens of a hypothetical Perfect Estimator in this 13-minute conference talk from DevConf.CZ 2025. Discover why rolling dice might actually be a valid estimation strategy and learn how Einstein's famous quote about God not playing dice relates to modern software development practices. Examine various scenarios where perfect estimators must make decisions and analyze which strategies yield the best results when working with Story Points, Velocity, and the Fibonacci sequence. Challenge your assumptions about estimation processes as you uncover how what appears to be messy and random might actually represent near-perfect estimation techniques, revealing the mathematical principles underlying effective project planning and agile development methodologies.
