They always had a decent number of Canadian & American comedians on who ten year old me thought were really funny, but now I daren't look any of them up in case they've gone chudward it is? drat maybe they were airing the US version because literally everyone on it and in the audience was murican

I had one project back in 2006 where we were moving from a totally free product to freemium on a pretty tight schedule. I understood the authentication/authorization logic and the other guy understood the UI code, and by pairing we managed to get everything done. I don't think there was any other approach that would've worked, and I also haven't worked on anything since where I think it would've helped. The regular devs at my current employer do full-time pairing. I don't know how they put up with it.

i did pair programming a few times in college. if you have a competent co-worker it can work well, but if meeting in person isn't possible, or you didn't enjoy their company i think it would be less than helpful also now i'm wondering about au pair programming, where you hire some unfortunate exchange student, except instead of doing housework and such, they program java or whatever for you

I’m also adhd, and pair programming made me stay on task more and write higher quality stuff. it was also 3x as exhausting as my normal schedule of “random bursts of productivity from 2-16 hours long”.

My only experience with pair programming was when I worked at a company that got suckered into the Pivotal experience, where your entire team spends weeks-months working at the Pivotal office learning to do things the Pivotal way, with two Pivotal engineers embedded in the team. It's all day every day pairing. You have no personal space, no desk to call your own. If you're a Pivotal employee and not a client, you get a locker. I've never seen an entire engineering team churn so quickly.
