   We do it for just about 100% of the time now. Only two exceptions: 1.) We have a second project we are ramping down on that only myself and 1 of my devs is trained on, so when we have to do anything with that he breaks off to do so. 2.) Whe

   My team does Mob programming (pair programming but with more than 2 developers). In addition to all of those benefits you mentioned, we also have noticed that it helps us keep focused on the task at hand (harder to slack off when the team i

   My engineering team I run does Mob programming, which is like Pair Programming just with more than 2 people. It's an absolute joy. Every one of my guys says it's much more enjoyable and productive than working solo.

    I like The Partially Examined Life Podcast. I used to listen to it a few years ago, they go through a bunch of different philosophers and hit high level points about them as they roll through the history of philosophy more or less. Serves a
