The senior dev left monitor looking like those Instagram posts that increase your phone brightness by 100x
Why is this being downvoted? Doesn’t it make sense that senior developers spend more time sending emails than staying up through the night writing code?
I don’t understand how you got that from the image.
Both monitors on the senior side of the image are showing coding environments
What do you mean? You don’t write your email in your IDE and lint it before copy/pasting it into Outlook (or email client of choice)?
A senior dev writes a program to generate her email.
I have actually done this, and for more than just automated responses. It was before ChatGPT, though; now, I’d be surprised if even junior devs aren’t doing it.
CI / CD baby, every autosave my build pipeline clones my email, transpiles it into more easily understood archaic English and then sends a copy to the intended recipient while kicking off a chron job to send an automated follow up email to them and everyone they’re contacts with 2 hours from commit time.
I beseech thee pull my merge request lest I smite thee (bitch)

Found the emacs user.
Junior devs leave everything in
darkbright mode. Senior devs have learned to protect their eyes… While doing nothing but email and meetings…Edit: Fix word swap. I’m not one of those crazy light mode users, I swear.
How does white mode…
It makes my eyes hurt even during the day. At least unless I turn down the brightness, usually to minimum.Try not to work in pitch darkness :)
The brightness adjustment is there for you to adjust it.
Light mode definitely is not better for the health of your eyes.
Depends. If you’re working in a well lit environment, like you should, dark screens are harder to read.
And if you’ve got astigmatism, like you shouldn’t, the color-on-black contrast is really hard to read.
Use dark mode in sunlight for a few hours and then tell me how it’s good for you.
Used dark (not black) themes everywhere for 8 years. My eyesight is still good according to my annual physical, but recently I’ve noticed that I have a hard time reading text written on a dark background. It is slightly blurred, especially when there is no light in the room.
Somewhere I still use dark themes, but I always try to switch to light mode if things look okay with code highlighting or smth.
Physical? As in a medical exam with a doctor?
If so you should really have a check up with an eye doctor, there are lots of eye health tests that you should regularly get beyond checking that you can read a chart at a distance.
This right here, guy is like “I can’t see the light shooting at my eyes, but every thing is okay otherwise, I’ll just live with it.”

I bought an ultra wide at the beginning of COVID and when I started my new job, my employer gave me another one. Now I have two side by side (the newer one is in the middle) and my laptop to the side. Sometimes I struggle to open enough applications to fill all that space.
