Thank you so much for misleading me to click your link.
Maybe you haven't heard of it before? E-paper (including e-ink) displays are much less rare than actually coding on pen and paper.
Would you be asking the same question for a post titled "Drawing with Ink", but it linked you to a page about drawing with an e-ink display? Of course not. It's misleading.
Fond memories of printing programs on continuous printer paper (paper with holes on the side, that many dot-matrix printers used) so that I could take my time to read them to figure out where the bugs where.
The mira pro color is marked as sold out and I can't even figure how to check non-color version on their site, so this doesn't look like something they sell a lot of though...

If it said "coding with ink", yes, I think I just might.
Try not to be so triggered. I don't think the author actually was trying to mislead. Of what use would that be? To their non-monetized blog? They're just sharing their happy moment with a "look it's like paper!" kind of vibe.
> I imagine most everyone at this point has heard of e-paper and e-ink displays
You'd be surprised. A few years ago, I asked about an eink reader / ebook reader at an electronics store and they didn't know what that was. Think I had to explain it to them as a tablet for reading books, but with a special display.
Not normally do I like telling others how to feel or behave, and as I was reacting to this comment I recalled the written-by-ai fireworks I see going off in comments all over hn. I will try not to react here either. Haha

Whenever I proofread papers in college, I would always print them out. There's something about being able to physically hold the paper that makes keeping the whole idea in your head easier that just isn't possible on a screen, for me at least.
I am the youngest person I know who programmed on that paper!
