Are they effective/accurate?\n Estimating with a team vs. by yourself\n If you\u2019re doing UI work (w/ or w/o a designer) vs. non-UI work\n How often do you reassess your estimation?\n When do you admit that your estimation is wrong or you won\u2019t make your deadline?\n How to prioritize tasks when a deadline is looming and not everything will get done?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpen-Source Project of the Week\n\n\n\n CocoaMarkdown - Markdown parsing and rendering in Objective-C\n\n\n\nPicks\n\n\nNolan\xa0O'BrienFollow @nolanobrien\n\n\n\n SimPholders 2.0\n\n A rewrite of simpholders in Swift. \xa0A tool for viewing your iOS Simulator folders, the apps installed and what was recently run. \xa0Great tool now that Simulators are unreadable GUIDs.\n\n\n\n\n\nDarryl\xa0Follow @dh_thomas\n\n\n\n NSHipster (Nate Cook) - JavaScriptCore\nA deep dive into using JSContext and related classes to evaluate JavaScript on iOS. Among the many use cases for JavaScriptCore is game scripting (although LUA is perhaps a more popular solution), which may come in handy for a future episode of iOhYes.\n\n\n\nChad @jazzychad\n\n\n\n \u201cHow to Ship Without a Deadline\u201d\n\n\n\nJohn Follow @johnsextro\n\n\n\n #NoEstimates\n\n http://noestimates.org/blog/ (Neil Killick)\n http://twitter.com/noestimates\n http://twitter.com/woodyzuill\n\n\n\n\n\nAlternative show title suggestions\n\n\n\n Modus Operandi\n Soto Brothers\n Coding Soto Brothers\n Fungibility\n Wa-gile-fall\n #vague tweets\n Its \u201cSuper\u201d\n In and out triangle\n Marty you\u2019re not thinking 4th dimensionally\n Gold master\n Stamping CDs\n Agreeing Snicker\n I look up to you Chad
