Introverts tend to "recharge" by themselves while "extroverts" tend to gain energy through interaction. I applaud Joel's efforts to bring his team together but I wonder if some of the introverts are taking extra long bathroom or smoke breaks to make up for all of the face time that is required.

Each of his programmers gets an office to themselves. Introverts and extroverts are getting recharges under his arrangements.
Being along in an office to work is not a substitute for being along to relax and recharge. Working time is where I expend energy, not recharge it.
Why my iPad corrected "alone" to "along" twice, I'll never know.
Your iPad is clearly an extrovert.
