I worked with some vim power-users (I was definitely not one myself), and learned a lot from them by accommodating their preference. Similar results for other tools that I might not have picked up on my own. The only thing I drew the line at was switching to Dvorak with the one dude who carried his own special keyboard around with him. Even that I consider a missed opportunity, but I knew it would have wrecked my productivity at first, and it would have confused my muscle memory for QWERTY for the other 80% of my work week.
- vertis 5y agoI know people that feel that way about it. I can't argue, I also had some really great pairing sessions where I learned a lot. On balance though, it was not what I wanted out of programming. I have no problem with people that want to do consensual pairing (heh). To make that a focus for their career. It just wasn't for me. I've ended up going in a different direction now building a startup.
