But it's not a dichotomy between 3 hours or instantaneous. It's a dichotomy between instantaneous and when someone has a break in flow to peek at messages, which IME is more like 15-30 minutes (and i think it's probably fair to ask people to peek around that frequently if they normally wouldn't)

- JAlexoid 3y agoThere's a very clear benefit of asking someone for help, when you're blocked. WFH comes with a lot of issues, when it comes to a timely response from people. I had many of colleagues in the WfH world, that just ignored me for a month... The idea that all engineering is highly focused and non-social just feeds the rockstar developer culture. And most of us aren't even close to rockstar status. There is always a balance between collaborative discussions and focus time. I thought that we learned it 20 years ago, that devs should not hide away in cubicles?
