Too Long; Didn't Read
<a href="https://www.cs.drexel.edu/~yfcai/CS451/RequiredReadings/MythicalManMonth.pdf" target="_blank">The Mythical Man-Month</a> is an essay by Fred Brooks. In this essay Fred writes about the difficulty in scheduling software development project and their time estimation. Specifically stating that a project takes X amount of Man-Month, so the more engineers are assigned to it, the faster it will get done. For example estimating that a project will take 9 months, then assigning a team of 9 engineers will result in the project delivered within 1 month. Of course in reality this could not be further from the truth.
