This episode, we take a pause from the Waterfall vs. IID rivalry to catch up on the management and measurement parts of software development.

We'll track how statistics got its start in the early modern era, through the quotas of the American Industrial Revolution and the analytical surge during the Second World War, and finally on to the rise of Management by Objective at HP and Intel.
