¯_(ツ)_/¯

This is a stand-up dinosaur meme where the dinosaur asks, "What's the difference between a light bulb and a programmer?" The light bulb stops working when it burns out. The audience was not amused. This joke is meant to highlight the issue of burnout and mental health problems that are common in the IT industry but are often not taken seriously. #MentalHealthMatters

    @nixCraft @mos_8502 So I am technically a lightbulb at the moment . I hope at least I can be a colorful LED.

    @nixCraft Tbh this is pretty sad. I remember so many times I was completely burned up and still working because I had to finish something pretty important and clients were pressing me hard.

    @nixCraft Burnout probably says more about your employer and their workplace than it does about you.

    @nixCraft How many programmers does it take to change a light bulb? None, it's a hardware problem.
