Festival activities of programmer's day

The 256th day of each year (September 13 in normal years and September 12 in leap years) is the International Programmers' Day. On this day, people wear white clothes to celebrate. Some netizens said that five years after graduation, the programmer changed from a handsome man to a completely bald "ape". The five-year journey of baldness is tragic. The professional characteristics of IT men represented by programmers have once again sparked heated discussions.

White was chosen as the theme color of programmer's day. In the red, green and blue 24-bit depth (RGB) color space, each primary color can have 256 levels (256 values from 0 to 255). When the three primary colors reach the maximum depth, that is, hexadecimal 0xFFFFFF, it means white. So programmers all over the world will wear white clothes to celebrate this day.

The 256th day of each year (September 13 in normal years and September 12 in leap years) is the International Programmers' Day. 256 is chosen because 256 is an 8-bit basic number familiar to programmers. Programmer's Day is an official festival in Russia. On this day, people wear white clothes to celebrate. Some netizens said that Cheng, who had been bald for five years, had a miserable fate.

On the day of Programmer's Day, some netizens said that programmers will become Cheng in five years. According to the picture, when a person graduates, he is full of youth and vitality. Two years later, he experienced some vicissitudes. But five years later, the programmer became completely bald and basically returned to primitive apes, so he was called Cheng.

Although the picture is a little funny, it does reflect the professional characteristics of IT men such as programmers to some extent, such as great pressure, narrow communication, overwork and many other problems.
