Mom Reviews Her Son's Code

My mother had a look at my code today and said: "So, your job is about writing text using random English words and symbols in fancy colors? I do not know why you get so well paid for that. That text is not even properly aligned to the left." She would be a very good code reviewer.

A software developer shares his mother’s blunt description of programming after she looks at his code. She mistakes source code for colorful, misaligned text, accidentally delivering a hilariously accurate code review; people send this as a reaction to non-programmers misunderstanding what developers do.
