I wrote this down in my notes the other day after hearing a colleague say it. It's such an interesting concept for me. As developers it feels like there is some sort of inertia toward working on your own, but whenever I pair program it always end up being a much more enriched experience. One of the biggest things for me is that there is always some one learning when pair programming - and in the best cases it's everyone involved. Jeff Atwood sums it up nicely:

If you're serious about programming, you should demand to work with your peers.¹

The one hurdle I'm not sure how to overcome is the classic "I'm stuck and just going to Google for 15 minutes" situation. But maybe that's something I need to grin and bear? Either way, I'm trying to make a habit of just dropping a video chat link to my team when I start a new task and asking if anyone wants to jump in.
