From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
Ceremonial Chemicals          Most hackers don't smoke tobacco, and use alcohol in moderation if at    all.   However, there has been something of a trend towards exotic beers    since about 1995, especially among younger Linux hackers apparently    influenced by Linus Torvalds's fondness for Guiness.          Limited use of non-addictive psychedelic drugs, such as cannabis,    LSD, psilocybin, nitrous oxide, etc., used to be relatively common and    is still regarded with more tolerance than in the mainstream culture.    Use of `downers' and opiates, on the other hand, appears to be    particularly rare; hackers seem in general to dislike drugs that make    them stupid.   On the third hand, many hackers regularly wire up on    caffeine and/or sugar for all-night hacking runs.
