Behavioral Software Engineering flips the script on the myth of the perfectly rational coder. Just like Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky showed in economics, our brains rely on mental shortcuts that skew decisions—so when we estimate tasks, pick tools or benchmark performance, we’re far from the logical “Econ” model.
In this talk, Mario Fusco dives into biases like anchoring, availability, bandwagon and pro-innovation, plus the not-invented-here and framing effects. You’ll see how these quirks sneak into code reviews, tech choices and project estimates—and learn why spotting them is key to better software, not just sharper logic.
