We're talking about two totally different programming paradigms here. The end product might be the same but it's more of a question about how you arrive there.

With JQuery you're signing up for manual DOM manipulation. It's a challenge to scale that for what's now considered table-stakes for web apps.

It's been super cool to see some people sign up. Happy to answer questions for anyone kicking the tires :)

It's totally separate from the topic of efficiency gains or code reviews, but the idea of 100% pairing would take most of the enjoyment out of programming for me. Working in isolation (for the most part) to solve a hard problem and drive it to completion is incredibly satisfying. A lot of that goes away when you're working side by side.

You're never in "the zone" if you're pair programming.
