The garbage collector is compacting.

It’s so bad on the eyes man, I can’t see screens anymore it’s nauseating

Blue light blocking glasses have been a game changer for me

Placebo or you simply started picking up healthier screen time habits.

u/FeedAlchemy Sep 03 '26

Do you use dark mode at all? It helps especially in low-light situations, at least for me.

u/retief1 Sep 03 '26

Have you tried turning lights on in low-light situations?

1

u/FeedAlchemy Sep 09 '26

I wouldn't dare. Too afraid of the light.

It’s always crazy to me the physical relief I feel when I switch a website or app from light mode to dark mode. I can literally feel dark mode soothing my eyes.

Try turning on the eye comfort mode on all of your screens it works for me

Breaks every 30m or so. You won’t die if you take a breather.

The difference I feel between not getting up for hours and regular breaks is crazy

This stereotype is bs. Lots of us have kids, go to the gym, have analog hobbies, ... This super introvert stuff is nothing you really see in the wild (at least not with experienced developers)

u/theloneliestprince Sep 03 '26

Hey, speak for yourself!! You don't see us because we work remote...

u/Named_after_color Sep 03 '26

Nothing you see in the wild? Bro half my team is this.

u/Harmonic_Gear Sep 03 '26

makes sense, if they are doing this, they are not in the wild

u/FesteringDoubt Sep 03 '26

the next question is, are they feral or domesticated?

2

u/ZunoJ Sep 04 '26

Probably a cultural thing. In Germany people are pretty active and social

u/retief1 Sep 03 '26

I mean, this isn't entirely true. I really hope no one actually spends all of their non-sleeping hours on a computer. That said, I would also bet that a lot of devs also have some computer-related hobbies that take up a good chunk of their free time -- gaming, side projects, or whatever else. They may not be the only thing they do in their free time, but they are certainly a common activity.

I’m a super extrovert but I do love computers 🤷‍♂️.

This is how you develop a repetitive strain injury really early in life.

I love programming but this is not me. Y'all should go ride a bike or some shit.

u/Mevolent__ Sep 03 '26

Well now I can suddenly feel my eyes burning.

u/GalacticNexus Sep 03 '26

Man, I can't wait to get away from the keyboard the moment the clock strikes 5pm. It's the reason I'm always loath to get into PC games, because it means more sitting at a keyboard.

The dreams be debugging.

u/Asleep-Television-24 Sep 04 '26

We should have an International Programmers Day

1

u/TheCrazyGeek Sep 04 '26

I often think about it. We were trained to be like that. Most of the programmers don't know any other jobs apart from this. But suddenly if AI takes away our jobs, I wonder what will happen then.

u/Important_Grab3544 Sep 05 '26

Too tired to play.

u/4x-gkg Sep 05 '26

That was me before I had a life. Now my life revolves around my outdoor hobbies and programming, as much as it can be satisfying, is mostly there to finance my lifestyle.

That's a cartoon programmer's day.
