          I have never once understood these sock references and jokes. Never seen a programmer wearing thigh high socks. Never associated socks with specific programming languages.

          What’s the punch that I’m missing here?

            Now I want to know how different distros measure up in unix socks per 1000 users or something. I have a feeling that Debian has a higher total number, but NixOS a higher percentage, maybe?

              The point is that you're looking at the wrong programmers. You need to look at gay programmers, and your life will change for the better.

                It's apparently a newly vocal (yet previously existing) trend amongst trans and drag programmers, particularly of the linux variety.

                I know of one transwoman and she doesn't do this, though we do work for a "business formal" environment.

                Seems to be a bigger thing amongst the younger college CS and fresh out of college folk.

                I personally find it a bit funny, but I also have the small bit of me that worries about the social-political climate and how it might impact their careers.

                Amongst engineers I've still found an uncomfortable amount of conservatives. So even if they don't support MAGA directly, I'd imagine they still carry a lot of that bias on "what is appropriate" or not.

                                        I think it went like this:

                                        • Linux is highly customizable
                                        • customizing or "ricing" your Linux machine became a hobby
                                        • weebs got into the hobby, infesting the space with anime waifus and other degenerate cartoons
                                        • some time during the weeb infestation, thigh high socks became a recurring theme
                                        • gay/trans programmers sarcastically posted themselves in thigh high socks
                                        • gay/trans programmers who didn't get the sarcasm unironically adopted thigh high socks
                                        • Rust was invented

                                        So you see, it's just another example of the kind of tragedies that can befall society when sarcasm isn't clearly labeled on the internet.
