Context

The meme is a humorous take on the stereotype that programmers with a background in time travel (i.e., those who have worked with or studied time machines) are often perceived as eccentric or unconventional. The image features two cartoon-style women, one labeled "Most people with a time machine" and the other labeled "Programmers with a time machine."

The first woman asks the second woman why she wrote a function that is clearly unnecessary, implying that most people would not bother doing so unless they had a specific reason or goal in mind. The second woman responds by saying that she wrote the function because it was "fun," suggesting that programmers often prioritize creativity and experimentation over practicality.

Overall, the meme pokes fun at the stereotype that programmers are obsessive about writing unnecessary code, but also highlights the importance of creativity and innovation in software development. It implies that while most people might see no point in writing a particular function, programmers may see value in it for its own sake, even if it doesn’t serve an immediate practical purpose.
