The caveat is that if a team does pair programming, it's helpful that everyone is ok with using the same editor. Worth mentioning that fact in a job advert so people know before they interview.
- nknighthb 13y agoGood point, pair programming, XP, agile, and all other such nonsense should be added to the rules.

- jdhendrickson 13y agoOr maybe people were willing to give something a chance, and found that though it has benefits, it's not everything it's cracked up to be? I am a solitary person so I found the entire idea of pair programming repugnant but some people really love it. I don't think it has anything to do with fashion more to do with what some would consider a failed experiment. Did coding this way yield quality code at a faster rate with less stress? Anecdotally I would say no, and that may be why it's called nonsense by some.
