This thread is Gold I was not a successful entrepreneur, but I learnt the max about running a startup from Doug’s talk in Leela Palace (over 10 yrs ago) which @Sequoia_India was kind enough to invite me to(I remember even the slides and words Doug used) Please watch video too!

I have never coded in pair nor will ever do it. I see programming as a creative pursuit. Best work happens in flow when one is alone and focused. I don't think pair programming will even let one Dev get into flow
@GergelyOrosz

Pair programming is notoriously absent from so many tech companies that otherwise are known for their high engineering bar IME. And I’m wondering why this is. Impostor syndrome? Focus on individual impact? Code reviews seen as replacing these? “Move fast” mindset?

If social distancing becomes the way of life, dense cities will get dismantled and get spread out. Causing an extraordinary dispersion of value in real estate wealth.
