> As the mythical man month has teached us: what one engineer can do in one month, two engineers can do in a year. I don't remember that being the main idea behind the Mythical Man Month. I think the major take aways were more like "Adding people to a late project makes it later" and "Some tasks don't get faster with more people. For example, you can't get 9 women to birth a baby in 1 month". Other tasks _do_ get faster with more people (doubling the number of people digging a ditch will result in the ditch getting dug faster). |
