Ruby (2.1+) protected method weirdness. Fails with "NoMethodError", accessing protected method.

Fire-Dragon-DoL / Why software estimates are complex
Created August 31, 2014 17:13
Why software estimates are complex (from HN)
Yet another place where intuitions derived from the normal distribution about the behavior of distributions screws people.
An explanation I like, from michaelochurch:
      Let's say that you have 20 tasks. Each involves rolling a 10-sided die.
   If it's a 1 through 8, wait that number of minutes. If it's a 9, wait 15
   minutes. If it's a 10, wait an hour.
      How long is this string of tasks going to take? Summing the median time
   expectancy, we get a sum 110 minutes, because the median time for a task is
   5.5 minutes. The actual expected time to completion is 222 minutes, with 5+
