On: The mortifying ordeal of pairing all day

[jdlshore]

I’m not the person you’re responding to, but I find it striking that you’re making very emphatic, very confident statements about things they have experienced and you have not. It’s quite rude.

FWIW, I do have experience with pairing, and my experience is the same as theirs: the person not typing does a lot of design thinking. It leaves the person who is typing free to power ahead at full speed, without having to pause for thought.

You're free to whatever interpretation you wish. I'm glad it worked out for them (and you).

I hope you can look back at that statement and see how ludicrous it sounds.
