i think these two are working in the same company

Skin on your fingertips is overrated anyways /s

This is just an old trick for building up your calluses

poor tree, i hope it is doing well...
Boss gets paid a dollar, I get paid a dime, that's why I [printscreen and walk to the printer instead of copy/pasting code] on company time.
This is proper procedure when you're paid by the hour.
I thought the person in the picture was reading code on a tablet device, and was wondering what is wrong with the picture. :D
Why is the code printed in dark mode!?!
Perhaps it's an effort to save companies that sell printer cartridges
Maybe they work for HP, it's their way to give back.
The answer is simple: Marketing people doing marketing things
And with a file browser sidebar 🤦
I thought tablet, then I thought the post was about the way they were bending the tablet's screen with their thumb, then I finally realised it was paper. Holding a printout of a screen shot just didn't enter my mind.
You gotta love stock photos. My favourite is the one where the code is projected across the room and the developer's face.

and always make sure to print your code in dark mode, don't want anyone who sees it to think you're weird
Image of Musk reading code he asked to be printed
This remind me of the "Print your most salient lines of code and bring to me"
Screens hurt my eyes.
An e-Ink monitor would be pretty cool. Maybe some day they'll be as fast as LCDs.
Twitter employee?
Damn, he is like ~~Elon Musk~~ my university lecturer who asks us to hand in homework with code printed out
Not sure why you crossed that out. Didn't musk ask for paper copies of code?
Me searching for a graphic design job...
"1. Knowledge and fluency of front end and backend we design is a must
- You will be in charge of maintaining our website.
- You will cream social media posts and create videos as needed by the sales team)
- Complete understanding of PowerPoint. Create sales PowerPoints daily of whatever the sales team needs. Including all copy."
Any job listing that asks you to "cream social media posts" is a red flag

Average front end dev
When you like computer science but also hate trees.
Back in the day, even in this century, printing out code in good text formatting on plain paper's not a bad way to work with some problems; you can spread out many pages on a table instead of one screenful at a time, make planned edits in paper or pen, then do them. It doesn't suit half-assed "coding" by hitting code completion and "next" in a wizard, but some of us still remember how to program.
But then marketing hears about this and this meme is the best they can come up with.
I suspect it's like Nigerian scammers being blatant about how dumb their scam is, to weed out the smart targets. "simplilearn" is obviously not for people who read manuals, you know?
I'm confused... how do all of you handle your merge conflicts???
with scissors and glue
somewhere some printer-ink making corporate is happy with that pic.
And I thought I abused print statements
Simple, she works at Twitter. Just preparing for a code review with Elon.
yeah we're printing all TPS reports in dark mode before they go out.
...did you see the memo about this?
Actual image of a python dev trying to write to the console with javascript.
Bloody hell, why did the designer print the new UI mockup?
The 1 trick Big Screen doesn't want you to know. Instead of buying multiple monitors, just print out the window before minimizing it.
Wait, I am the only one who does PR reviews on paper as God intended?
How else are you going to do code review?
Hello, I'm here from all, could someone please explain the joke to me?
You can't edit code easily if it's on a piece of paper. It is also stupidity.
Oh. Part of my job is making complicated procedures and sometimes it helps to print them out and go over with a pen. Didn't realize that doesn't work for code. Now I know!
It wouldn't be such a bad idea if there weren't IDEs that would help you review your code more easily.
Think of a text document you would scan for typos. Sure it would help you to print it out and read it on paper. But finding them with words auto correction is much faster.
This kind of auto correction is also present in IDEs (integrated development environment / the program you use to do the actually coding). You can also jump from one part of your code to another part for a quick lookup or analyze it with its help.
So printing it out not only doesn't let you editing it it also slows down reviewing / debugging / refactoring it.
and apart from what the others said, if you'd decide to print the code for some reason, printing colored text on black background would be pretty wasteful way to do it
Likewise - it's only happened a few times in my life, but there have been moments in a 2k-line long SQL stored proc I inherited that I needed to print the thing off and user markers to try group code up and figure out what was happening (it was a monstrosity with no formatting or comments lol)
But yeah day to day, even year to year nobody is printing off their code to look at it - let alone only 20 lines of it lol
Back when I started my software career (2001) we did paper code review printouts in Araxis Merge. We also didn't have source control back then.
hahahahaha, this got me
