Is it possible to program with the monitor off?

Question

This seems like a stupid question, but it's been a while since I've been feeling discomfort in my eyes and I've been trying to slow down my use of the computer for some time.

Then I had the idea to code with the monitor turned off. Anyone here already tried to do this? It is possible?

Answer 1

did you ever try night mode ??

Answer 2

just use an old computer and code using punch cards, those don't even have monitors so you needn't worry about even accidentally turning them on!

Answer 3

Try finding an IBM 2741 clone that works on modern systems.

Answer 4

you could in theory, but i don‘t recommend it, you could use a screen reader like blind people.
have you tried flux https://www.google.com/search?q=flux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b
or similar programs?
or maybe computer glasses?
do you have the right distance from the screen?

Answer 5

Max I use it, but I still feel discomfort in my eyes.

Answer 6

Marcus Xavierr have you tried looking out of the window or something semiregularly(like every 10 to 15 minutes for 20-30 seconds)? your eyes need to focus on far away objects regularly

Answer 8
