I'll add more funny story to my own comment above. My boss usually pings me to do pair programing with him when: - He wanted to write some half-thought codes he also wants me as co-author to it (literally 2 names on git commit) - He wanted to do some dangerous things on production DB, he wanted me to be his witness, in case something went wrong, I would also share some guilt It's really funny I would call this "pair responsibility"
