“The incremental sprints approach provides cost certainty and a go/no-go decision point between sprints,’’ he says. “This way, the development team {learns as it goes} at a known burn rate and has the opportunity to stop before too much effort is spent on something potentially not useful.”
在已知的烧钱速度下了解进展?

“摸着石头过河”

(开发团队按照既定的阶段性花钱计划,)“摸着石头过河”……
有点走一步看一步的意思。
说话者认同这种“跑跑停停”的方法。

as it goes at a known burn rate是谓语learns的伴随状语,两件事同步发生。burn rate是指项目在各个阶段要用去多少经费(的计划);known指的是这些计划已经预先确定下来。at...rate本意是指以什么样的花钱速度(来开展项目)。

一边做一边探索 / 一边做一边学

This way, the development team learns as it goes at a known burn rate
这样,开发团队就可以在可知的花费速度下一边做一边探索。

Burn rate is the rate at which a company is losing money. It is typically expressed in monthly terms.

Aside from financing, the term burn rate is also used in project management to determine the rate at which hours (allocated to a project) are being used, to identify when work is going out of scope, or when efficiencies are being lost. Simply put, the burn rate of any project is the rate at which the project budget is being burned (spent).
