Programmers Under Mandatory Sleep Curfew

Description

A meme shows the text "go to sleep by 9 p.m or go to jail" followed by "Programmers:" above a prison scene filled with people in orange jumpsuits lounging on bunks and standing by numbered cells. The joke frames programmers as so chronically late-night that a normal bedtime mandate would incarcerate the entire profession. The image leans on the familiar developer culture of coding deep into the night, debugging past reasonable hours, and treating sleep as an optional dependency.
