User programs live in n-dimensions, and the OS is (n+1)-dimensional. Emacs,
being a user program, cannot conceive of, much less create, an OS.
I believe the pair programming "best practice" pushed by McKinsey has largely
been debunked as "one guy doing all the work while the other guy slows him
down."
It's a brochure-worthy September day in the Northeast, the sickness be damned.
Get out there. You know it's only like this for two weeks.
