I can't imagine coding with someone else smartassing over what I do. Never tried it. Does anyone actually like pair programming?

- fragmede 2y agoSome love it, some hate it. If you work with a bunch of smart asses in a toxic culture and you can't actually stand your coworkers, I can see why you'd have such an instinctively negative reaction. But if there's a safe culture of mutual respect and you don't work with asshats it can result in greater productivity and fewer bugs and you'll learn things to help you be a better programmer. But also human psychology - if it's forced on you from above then you'll hate it, if it's your idea then you'll love it.
- lakomen 2y agoHmm. Thanks for feedback. Yeah I guess it all depends on the attitude and if you click. It could be fun if you get along well with your partner. But I have a thought and want to make it reality, so I focus on that idea, that thought in order to finish it. Then another voice enters that thought process. Back in the day I would write code and when I had a problem, I would chat up my online contacts on ICQ, and just by explaining the problem I would find a solution, the rubber duck method. However constantly having someone giving their opinion on things... I imagine that being super annoying, when you're in the process of shaping that feature you have laid out in your head.
