Hate that a lot of programmer "culture" revolves around coffee. We should not be normalising caffeine addictions

a lot of programmer "culture" revolves around coffee

It comes up in memes/jokes, but aside from that, what else does it have to do with our subculture?

I'm not sure that it's even ours. Coffee comes up a lot in general office culture.

Every time I go into the office we take like 5 coffee breaks throughout the day. Some coworkers have switched from pods to espresso machines to bring down the cost per cup.

Is it just my team? I feel like this is pretty common.

It's not just you. My new year's resolution was to go down from double shots to single shots.

But the only way to make a single is to split a double. It just can’t be done.

Yeah I guess it's more that the general office world bleeds into the dev world

Pretty sure it's just general.. culture? Caffeine, other than sugar, is the most normalized addiction. It's a potion that works for multiple purposes.

If you're still laughing, try not taking any caffeine for a full day. I recently tried to stop the habit (digestive issues) and it's really damn hard.

I just did a week without coffee, and I'm really proud of myself.

I find anything other than light roast espresso gives me stomach pain.

I've stopped a few times to make sure I'm not developing an addiction, and yeah, it can be tough.

Same thing but more advanced addiction

Addicted to caffeine and sugar at the same time.

Jokes on you. I’ve been a drug addict before starting to code
