Good exploration of the challenge of "commitment".

The aspec of thinking and communicating in probabilities seems simple, but our human brains are not trained to compute probabilities.

I find that "under promise, over deliver" is a more actionable heuristic. Although I don't believe in estimates, so there heuristic is a bit paradoxical for me 🤣

I tendo to agree the observation… I also don’t believe on estimates, I do believe (and use) data-driven insights (as a dynamic ongoing thing, not just a snapshot) to help give a soundness to things like “under promise, over deliver”… 😁
