Estiquote

Clint Edmonson, an Architect Evangelist for Microsoft, asks Have you been burned by your own ‘Estiquote‘?

estiquote - ‘es-tə-kwōt’ - noun. Modern IT term referring to the horribly inaccurate estimate a developer gives, is held to, judged by, and ultimately rewarded for despite the fact that requirements for the project were not available at the time of the request.
