Nottodo: evidence-based probabilistic to-do list

So how would one start to determine these probabilities?


Nottodo: evidence-based probabilistic to-do list

I'm not familiar with FogBugz, but let me see if I understand what you're saying.

Discarding probabilities for a moment, you have some amount of time in which to do work, and some tasks to accomplish during that time. The basic question is -- how should I allocate the time to accomplish these tasks?

The answer to this question, you suggest, is to minimize the risk of failing at one of those tasks.

I don't understand why risk is involved here -- why can't we just treat it as some amount of time in which to do a certain amount of work, without any sort of uncertainty?
