Title: Balancing Time and Productivity in Software Development

As software development projects continue to grow in complexity, developers are facing new challenges in managing their time effectively. A recent article by a senior engineer highlights the importance of time-based estimates in planning and prioritizing tasks.

The author argues that while project management has moved away from time-based estimates, they can still be effective when used correctly. They share their experience at Wayfair, where they refined their sprint process to incorporate time-based estimation.

However, the article also acknowledges the challenges associated with time-based estimates, including uncertainty, pressure, miscommunication, and variability. It emphasizes the need for a robust process that involves developers in the estimation and planning process.
