How often do you have to log into it? Is it specific to a device?
Patterns in software mean the same thing. If I can recognize the pattern through reading code, UML, or by being told with jargon, I am going to save time and energy.
I am going to assume you are not a musician or music theorist or something along those lines. Mainly because music is patterns.
MENSA describes intelligence as the ability to recognize patterns. (Couldn't find my source on this.)
But lastly, GOF didn't tell people that their patterns are a means to an end, they are a starting place.
If you can't get a sense of someone's culture fit from talking to them how is looking at what they wear going to help in an interview? [Sure you can see if they come in wearing jnco's or look to see if the indie music/game/movie shirt is "cool" enough.] The only thing I think is reasonable to assume from clothing is how interested they initially are in working for the company.
Maybe someone with a lot of startup experience can enlighten me.
The rules:
1. Only 2 people on the raft at a time.
2. The Father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their Mother's presence.
3. The Mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their Father's presence
4. The thief cannot stay with any family member, if the Policeman is not there.
5. Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.
Please don't post answers in the comments.
To me it seems that the balance of social and alone should be to result in inner peace. This is to ultimately increase productivity in doing what you find satisfying in life.
I write code a lot at work and we plan it out in a group then move our own ways to write it with occasional instant messaging about this or that. But sometimes when I am writing I can't focus or have trouble getting myself into the problem. And from there I find that reading or talking to someone at the office can help put me at peace and ultimately help me focus on the work I have to do.
Like right now I am at work and writing this - I have a task to do to document some things but I hardly remember them and I need to do something that is going to interest me. Am I alone while doing this? Well, sure, I am available for other people to approach but I am not trying to talk to anyone.
I think the term alone is relative to our sense of privacy. If I was in a room with the door closed would I feel more alone than if I am sitting in an open office? Probably. But if I can get to a peaceful state it will probably produce similar results in my work ethic/productivity.
One day, maybe...
