Yeah since then, and I've done pair programming both in the office and online. It didn't feel that different. The biggest advantage of the office is you get to know people better. I guess it's easier to chase seniors in an office as a junior if they don't have time for you but I hate being that person either way.

I like to know people personally. 🤷‍♂️ I’d rather work with a cool person with average code than some aloof GitHub username. I’ve done both, and the first is better for mental health. That said, WFH is… very nice. It’s a toss up I guess.

I find WFH with voice calls the sweet spot but it's a preference ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
