People really pair program all day long?  Gah, that sounds maddening and inefficient.  I would probably lose my shit if I had to interact like that with someone every minute of the day.<p>Sure, take a few minutes to look something over, talk over what the issue is, look at some data, decide what ought to be done, but then you&#x27;ve got to go do the work.<p>I guess I&#x27;m like an old Apple II.  I can have my Write_Code disk in, or I can have my Deal_With_People disk in, but I&#x27;ve only got one disk drive.
