Every single company where management pushed pair programming was where the management was super paranoid that their workers were slacking off and just created a super annoying environment where no one has time to think and reflect on how to code properly.

@freemo dunno. i would like an environment where i don't have to do literally everything.

@icedquinn
In that case you should be a manager

@freemo then i get to make charts about all the work that was supposed to be delegated which means i end up having to do it myself anyway

@icedquinn
A good manager delegates the delegation duties.

@freemo have always coded it as workers do single individual tasks, managers manage task lists, and leaders figure out wtf to tell the managers to put on the task lists

@icedquinn
Must be nice working at Fairytale, inc. You guys hiring?

@icedquinn I have actually seen it work well for some people, so... don't immediatey assume it won't work? Good luck anyway. @freemo

@timorl
Oh it definitely qorks well for some people. The problem is it doesnt for everyone else.
@icedquinn

@freemo @timorl you can probably get thepurported benefits from using gerrit anymore

@icedquinn
I miss gerrit
@timorl

@freemo @timorl it still exists.
you can do similar with phabricator's arcanist, but that requires launching diffs instead of pulling them from branches.

either that or script git to launch them for you.

@icedquinn
At this point gitlab gives me almost the same thing anyway with a better ui
@timorl

@freemo @timorl gitlab has branch gates?

@freemo @timorl i never used gerrit because it seemed to have some heavyish requirements. but it and phabricator had things like requiring so many reviewers to approve.

@icedquinn
Not sure if i recall what those are, been years since i used gerrit. It may have been a later feature
@timorl

@icedquinn @freemo @timorl It does help in ways in which code review doesn't, due to orders of magnitude shorter round trip time.

@TikToc
O can say it being great for a fraction of the people and hell for everyone else. Its hell for me thats for sure, i need privacy to think as i code.
