Pair programming is good to start with...and in some cases might help out juniors...
but building a solid company culture and knowledge base can turn out to be more efficient
Bugs are something to live with....for a while

Hey guyz,
I m not a professional and am still learning.. but I have tried Pair Programming and I can say.. its Fun and Productive.
This is because.. two minds are working at the same time and we both share our differnt perspective and adopt the one which is better.. and we can help each other when we are stuck in some problem.
Try it yourself 
Goodluck.

It works for short periods. It is quite an intense experience. I wouldn't want to do it every day.

I'd feel the same way. I could do it every now and then, but I know myself, it would soon get annoying.

I have used it on occasion but said no as it was just for training or idea exchange.

Both the persons sitting at the system console should go in very amicable terms instead of resorting to debate frequently. Only then, I feel, this approach would be profitable with an optimal use of billing hours.

It can be well laid down in an engineering book, but not among humans 
"Silence will create respect and dignity; justice and fair play will bring more friends;
benevolence and charity will enhance prestige and position; courtesy will draw benevolence;
service of mankind will secure leadership and good words will overcome powerful enemies"

I found it very difficult to look for a pair on some of my hobby projects. They are the ones I enjoy but I feel quite lonely doing that with only myself.
Mind sharing suggestions on how to look for a code buddy?

No, never formally under this name, with all the attached rules.
Informally, often enough.
