kamen69715yTo turn the "joke" upside down - if you have bugs in whatever you're making, wouldn't you want for them to surface so that you can fix them?

Mr-Myrk5335yThanks, I will now on use that snarky comeback, when someone asks the stupid question "why do you use dark mode?" again :)

Hazarth93765y"Its easier on the eyes when switching windows at night without other lightsources" is the only valid response to that question! At least I can't think of another right now, that one is true for me.
However I still like the bug joke :( -
wannabe5325ysaying it attracts bugs is more social acceptable than saying that the light burns and that only the darkness is comfort for the depressed and demoralized soul of a developer as they struggle to cope with infinite anxiety caused by poor code and unrealistic project management.
Or something. ;) -
Is it not true that it was a moth walking around the circuitry of the HARVARD MARK I computer caused a short in its integrated circuits?
Since the given context is Computing and not nature, does it not follow that light attracts bugs?

This is for all those people that like dark themes and when asked why you say it's because light attracts bugs.
I would like to explain how that is just so wrong. Bugs attracted to light are moths and a few other flying bugs.
The rest of the bugs live and thrive in darkeness. Cockroaches, bedbugs, spiders etc.
In fact mosquitoes hunt at night and prefer to hunt in the dark.
I just had to put this out there.
