Recently, he convinced a small software company to release a dataset
documenting its internal time estimates
<http://mail01.tinyletterapp.com/data-is-plural/data-is-plural-2019-04-24-edition/14233370-github.com/derek-jones/sip_dataset?c=b52636bc-cb2b-4f8c-a7dd-a9ca89484e10>,
spanning 10 years, 20 projects, and 10,000+ tasks. For each task, the
dataset indicates the number of hours it was predicted to take, how long it
actually took, the (anonymized) developers it was assigned to, and more.
