Wait, why?

Don't you get it? The lack of body hair allows for more efficient air/skin contact to keep you cool. It also reduces itchiness from the socks, which in turn, compress the legs and focus oxygenated blood flow on the brain and vital organs, promoting better code, like a fighter pilot's compression suit. And all of that is necessary to help counter the cognitive losses incurred by the continuous arousal of wearing the buttplug.

Couldn't you just not wear the buttplug?

Not...? I don't understand. What do you mean?

I usually hit the bottle, but I'm not about to criticize whatever works for you. If rubber duck debugging has been scientifically proven to work, I don't see any valid argument against coding socks or smooth legs. Besides, those two things go together like insurance companies and arson or AI server farms and power supply cable cutting.

A match made in heaven, in other words.

I don't understand this on so many levels...

It started as a joke about trans/cross dressing coders claiming that their feminine knee high socks were "programming socks" to assist in coding when found by roommates and then somehow it became the idea that all of this stuff was necessary for programming

Nonsense, goatse has been a beloved activity for the whole family for decades. Gather the kids and grandparents together for your first viewing.
