In my job there's a tech thing called a test suite, but the tech part is not important what matters to the question is that this test suite takes well over 10 minutes to run and there's nothing I can do but wait it do its own thing.
Is it ethical to play videogames while I wait? Considering the tests will take longer than a match in the game I wanna play while waiting...

Another programmer with a bazillion test suite set up at my job here. We have the test suites running on a server, so I can't really 'wait', since the compile runs on a separate computer.
But do ask your co-workers. I've seen offices that allow a short break when a compilation or a CI is running, but this isn't 'ethical' in other places.

While an hardware engineer is busy fixing an RF circuit, I browse danger/u/. And CTO sometimes see me do this. But I'm underpaid, so they just shit the fuck up about it.
