What do you do while compiling

Sometimes read something, sometimes watch popular TV Series, sometimes something else...

Getting a new coffee or writing tests and documentation. Talking to colleagues is a key part in getting a new coffee :-)

Yes I write tests as well during the compilation time, nice to mention.

I have the wrong job...

Just think of us poor people from time to time who don't have to wait for compiles and are called out for wasting time online. :P

That’s another way to put it, yeah ;) Currently I’m messing with 7G of git repository, lots of waiting...

We could provide you with a neat Qt based compiler simulator ;-)

Well that's a shame that you don't have slow Internet there in Norway in order you could think on doing something else while waiting for pages to load :P

I grab a cup of coffee or refresh Seesmic Web.

That's when i go and disturb my colleagues :)

I code. Often times I have a new feature to try out on the new set of compiled libraries, makes the whole thing like an adventure. :) Keeps me busy as well.

I usually do some browsing, chatting and tea drinking. However, ever since "XKCD did a comic on compiling":http://xkcd.com/303/, I've been wanting to do swords practice during compiling...

I get a new cup of coffee etc :)

Drink tea, irc, QtDN, work on another project or branch, help colleagues, fix sys admin issues, emails, drink more tea... ;-)
